 WIX racing filters have been developed and proven on many winning race cars. Wix has been a part of racing and NASCAR for many years, both as a sponsor and in the race cars. In fact many race teams rely on Wix Filters to get the highest performance out of their race engines. The company's long-standing relationship with NASCAR not only demonstrates that WIX filters are high-quality products, but it also shows WIX's dedication to racing.
WIX is an associate sponsor of the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 18 car driven by 2000 Winston Cup Champion Bobby Labonte in the Nextel Cup Series. WIX is also an air filter contingency sponsor in the NASCAR contingency sponsorship program, awarding cash prizes to WIX-sponsored drivers in the Nextel Cup, Busch Grand National, Craftsman Truck, Winston West and Busch North Series that finish in first, second or third place.
WIX also sponsors Joe Gibbs Racing's No. 20 car driven by 2005 Nextel Cup Champion Tony Stewart, along with Richard Childress Racing, Bill Davis Racing, Dale Earnhardt, Inc., Evernham Motorsports, Hendrick Motorsports, Roush Racing, and Robert Yates Racing in NASCAR's Nextel Cup Series.
WIX racing filters are specially designed for racing applications and are not intended for normal driving applications. AMSOIL carries the full line of WIX racing filters
Superior Construction
Radial air filters are constructed of mesh screen on the inside wall diameter for element strength and media protection from backfire. WIX makes filtration products for auto/light truck and racing applications including air and oil filters, fuel filters, transmission filters, cabin filters.
WIX racing oil filters have a full metal base plate for superior strength. They also feature a silicone anti-drainback valve that stays flexible in extreme temperatures and keeps oil in the filter to prevent dry starts.
WIX racing oil filters use an upfront by-pass valve. This design is superior to top-mounted valves because it helps to keep oil from washing past dirty media and entering the engine. The glass-enhanced media in WIX oil filters offers greater efficiency, capturing more 10 to 12 micron sized particles than other cellulose/synthetic blend medias. They also have a coil steel spring to ensure internal filter parts are sealed properly.
WIX panel element air filters have a linear path through the filter for low airflow restriction, a specially formulated adhesive to form WIX's exclusive pocket pleat for the filter media and a soft sealing urethane gasket molded in place on the filter element.
