Kerrigan points out that the Purolator website www.purolatorautofilters.net itself is a repository for many years of technical and marketing knowledge.

Purolator manufactures and supplies high quality automotive and heavy duty filters to the North American aftermarket and original equipment manufacturers. Inventor of the automotive oil filter in 1923, Purolator has, since then, pioneered more than 40 ‘firsts’ in the filtration industry. In fact, the first automotive oil filter was called a ‘Purolator,’ short for ‘pure oil later.’ Currently, the Purolator brand has more than 2,000 part numbers for automotive, light truck and heavy-duty applications. Now part of the Bosch umbrella of automotive aftermarket products within NAFTA, Purolator’s advanced aftermarket filters include:
• PureONE and Purolator Classic oil filters;
• PureONE and Purolator Classic air filters;

• The ‘forgotten filters,’ including transmission filters, fuel filters, breathers and PCV valves.
