Difference between air filters and oil filters

Main function

Air filters

1. Purpose: Air filters are designed to clean the air entering the bike's engine, removing impurities such as dust, pollen and other contaminants.
2. Location: They are located at the inlet of the air intake system, usually in an air filter box.
3. Main benefit: To keep the engine free of harmful particles, ensuring a proper mixture of air and fuel for efficient combustion.

Oil filters

1. Purpose: Oil filters have the function of removing particles and contaminants from the engine oil, such as metal debris, dirt and combustion products.
2. Location: They are located in the engine lubrication system, usually near the oil sump.
3. Main benefit: To protect internal engine parts from premature wear and to keep the oil clean for optimum lubrication.

Types and materials

Air filters

1. Common types: Paper, foam, cotton.
2. Materials: Paper filters are disposable and economical; foam filters are washable and reusable; cotton filters are high performance and also reusable.
