5in Pre-Filter for R2C Pro Series

The 5in Pre-Filter for R2C Pro Series is a purpose-built air intake protection system designed for serious off-road and high-performance vehicle builders. This pre-filter wrap sits upstream of your primary air filter element, extending filter life by trapping large particulates, dust, and debris before they reach your engine's main filtration stage. Whether you're running a lifted truck through dusty trails, a race-prepped car in harsh conditions, or a modified engine in an environment with marginal air quality, this accessory solves the real-world problem of premature filter clogging that leads to reduced airflow, engine strain, and shortened service intervals.

Engineered for the R2C Pro Series platform, this 5-inch-tall wrap features a durable polyester construction with a black finish that resists UV degradation and moisture absorption—critical for longevity in demanding environments. The cylindrical design accommodates a 15-inch-diameter filter housing, meaning it integrates seamlessly into most custom intake setups without requiring adapter fabrication. Polyester material offers superior breathability compared to foam alternatives, maintaining consistent airflow while the pre-filter stage captures oversized contaminants that would otherwise bypass standard mesh screens. The top-mounted configuration and Outerwears branding ensure straightforward installation around existing filter assemblies without modification to your intake tract.

This pre-filter wrap benefits builders operating in high-dust environments—desert runners, farm trucks, trail enthusiasts, and track vehicles running open-element intakes—where filter replacement costs and downtime compound quickly. Installation is tool-free; simply position the wrap around your filter element and secure it to your intake structure using existing mounting points. The lightweight 0.08-pound design adds negligible weight while the compact 4.95 x 2.35 x 6.45-inch footprint fits tight engine bays without interference with throttle bodies, sensors, or vacuum lines. For maximum engine protection and minimal maintenance burden on modified vehicles, pairing this pre-filter with your primary element extends service life by 40–60%, translating to real savings on filter inventory and shop downtime.
