Purolator announces that the 2009 catalogs for its professional installer oil and air filtration lines have been updated with a host of new details.

Purolator’s high quality, installer filtration lines are sold under the brand names Group 7, ProMotive and PowerFlo automotive oil and air filters. Purolator manufactures and markets these lines specifically to warehouse distributors and independent repair shops along with quick lubes and other automotive service chains.

These 800-plus page catalogs for the Group 7, ProMotive and PowerFlo automotive filters lines provide detailed listings in three languages — English, French and Spanish — for ease of use by technicians and parts professionals across the nation. They include sections on filters for passenger cars and light trucks, new products guide and superseded part numbers, technical bulletins, hotline phone numbers and hours, vehicle engine identification, product warranty information and much more.

"These oil and air filters offer an affordable option for shops and technicians looking to enhance their bottom line as well as helping motorists that do not want to get their hands dirty, but would rather pay someone else to do the job," said Ramon Nuñez, director of filtration for Bosch, joint venture owner of Purolator. "Most important, these lines offer excellent value along with quality filtration."

"Technicians and parts professionals want to find the right filter part number quickly, easily and accurately," explained Nuñez. "They also want immediate access to footnotes and other helpful information that will increase their productivity, and these new catalogs do exactly that."
