More than 30 million times in the last 12 years: that’s how often people chose one of our products when replacing the air dryer cartridges – and with good reason.
Original means original
We act as a development partner for almost all major vehicle manufacturers when it comes to air dryer cartridges. That’s why our OE air dryer cartridges are full of series model production know how and innovations. We pay particular attention to the cartridges during in-house development and production because these need to provide the best possible protection for brake systems. That’s why we focus on using premium materials and technology throughout. This allows us to help you get commercial vehicles back on the road quickly and easily, and to ensure they remain there as reliably as possible, for as long as possible.
Performance benchmark
How do our air dryer cartridges perform in a direct comparison? We put the various systems on the market to the test to see what we can achieve – and what our competitors are capable of. We found that our air dryer cartridges for conventional and mechatronic air treatment systems stand up to any comparison, and are even superior in most respects.
Outstanding drying and filter performance
The details are what make all the difference. Our OSC air dryer cartridge, for instance, comes equipped with an aerosol and oil filtration system positioned before the desiccant in the cartridge. This prevents particles of oil and dirt from penetrating deep into the air dryer cartridge. The internal desiccant is protected and can work for a long time, offering outstanding filter performance. The entire brake system is safely and reliably protected against the ingress of moisture and particles of oil and dirt for up to 36 months. Brake performance is constantly maintained, and internal corrosion and system contamination are reliably prevented.
