Like many other internal combustion engines, those used in boats and other vessels need clean air to operate. However, unlike automotive and motorcycle motors, most outboard engines don't have an air filter, just a kind of an air box to dampen engine noise. The reason is quite obvious – the quantity of dust and debris found over the water is minimum. However, there is a crucial requirement concerning inboard engines: they have to be outfitted with a flame arrestor, the part looking like a traditional filter. Flame arrestors are also installed in the air intake and can filter the air getting into the cylinders, but their main function is different.
As the name implies, they are meant to stop the flame coming from the motor in the case of backfire. Some time ago, these parts came approved by USCG, but afterward, they started to receive SAE approval. In our online store, you can find a wide range of marine air filters & flame arrestors complying with all the necessary regulations. Many of them are washable and feature the latest technology making these components highly effective in minimizing the risk of fire caused by engine backfire. We carry plenty of flanged and non-flanged models by K&N, Sierra, and other brands, along with related hose adapters and tubes.
