EE 815 Air Filter

EE-815 Heavy-Duty Primary Air Filter (Replaces CAT 246-5009)

Protect your high-value heavy machinery with the EE-815 Primary Air Filter. Engineered to handle the extreme intake demands of large-scale industrial engines, this radial-seal filter provides a critical line of defense against dust, grit, and airborne contaminants.

Specifically designed as a replacement for Caterpillar 246-5009, the EE-815 ensures maximum airflow without compromising filtration efficiency, helping to maintain horsepower and fuel economy in the most punishing work environments.

Key Performance Features:

  • Radial Seal Technology: Features a high-quality urethane seal that provides a consistent, leak-proof bond even under high vibration.1

  • Large Capacity Media: Multi-layered pleated paper design maximizes the surface area for superior dirt-holding capacity.

  • Structural Integrity: Reinforced with a heavy-duty inner and outer metal cage to prevent pleat collapse or "bundling" during high-pressure intake.

  • Precision Fit: Built to the exact dimensions of the OEM housing for easy, tool-free installation.
