Filter heads

We offer a number of different filter heads suitable for use with Bosch type spin-on filters. These filters screw onto the filter head by means of an M16 thread cut into the centre port of the filter canister. The seal between the filter and head is integral to the filter.   Filter heads are listed in the menu.

Filter heaters

We also offer a coolant heat exchanger module and an electric heating module for these filters.
