This greatly increases filter life by avoiding premature saturation that can be found with our competitor. It also provides higher water holding capacities as shown below. The super absorbent polymer used in Petro-Clear water removal filters is completely inorganic, so it will not support the growth of bacteria. This helps eliminate any oxidation formation that could cause rust particles to flow downstream or cause pin-hole leaks in the filter can. Such leaks can develop due to the corrosive conditions that can occur when fuels become unstable.
Epoxy coatings are fuel-resistant.
