FF1104 Fuel Filter

In designing the FF1104, Hastings made it easy for the user to replace the filter while simultaneously assuring that the housing gasket is positioned to provide a leak-proof seal. 

The housing lid is permanently attached to the filter element. By providing the unit preassembled, installers can change the filter without getting diesel fuel on their hands. Another advantage of providing a new lid with each filter is that there is no longer the need to buy an expensive, hard-to-find OEM replacement lid, should the threads become damaged or otherwise broken. 

The FF1104 lid contains specially designed, raised ribs for added structural support. For proper installation, 10-15 ft./lbs. torque is required and can be applied by using the 1/2" square drive slot. 

The user can also be confident the filter will form a seal with the housing, because the innovative symmetric gasket is contained within the lid, insuring proper alignment every time. With the Hastings method, there is no worry of improper orientation of the seal, unlike the loose, beveled gasket provided by others. 

When it comes to filter performance, you can expect the best the industry has to offer from Hastings Premium Filters. By reviewing the test data provided below, it is evident that in controlled, industry-standard laboratory tests, Hastings outperforms the OEM filter, nearly doubling the contaminant holding capacity while equaling the contaminant removal efficiency. The FF1104 delivers superior filtration performance in a convenient, easy-to-service package.
