Description
Overview:
The Water Block Filter Element for Fuel Systems - J3049/WG is an inline replacement element designed to remove water from petrol and diesel fuel before it reaches sensitive engine components. Built around a pleated, water-blocking filter media with durable end caps and fuel‐resistant seals, it traps particulate while absorbing and stopping free water, helping to prevent corrosion, injector wear, and poor running. It is suitable for use in mobile plant, generators, compressors, compact tractors, and larger garden machinery such as ride‐on mowers. Meeting OEM specification MPN/OEM J3049/WG, this element is intended for straightforward in-line installation or as a cartridge inside compatible filter housings, supporting reliable cold starts and clean, dry fuel delivery in everyday site and yard conditions.
Key Features:
- High-efficiency water separation to protect pumps, injectors, and carburettors
- Pleated media for good dirt-holding capacity with low flow restriction
- Water-blocking treatment helps stop free water passing downstream
- Durable construction for long service intervals in harsh environments
- Fuel-resistant seals for a secure fit and reduced leak risk
- Inline element format for simple installation and replacement
- Helps reduce corrosion, misfiring, and filter icing related to water
- Meets OEM specification for J3049/WG to support correct performance
Typical Applications:
Used in fuel lines on construction plant, agricultural equipment, static and portable generators, air compressors, site heaters, small boats for yard use, and professional garden machinery. Ideal where fuel may be stored, transferred, or exposed to condensation. Helps maintain efficient running, improves reliability in damp or cold weather, and supports preventative maintenance schedules.
