Stratapore filters
So, more then once this has come up about how great these are with no links to explain.
I did some searching and finally found that this "special" filter media is a Fleetguard item. Fleetguard appears to have been bought by Cummins and is now found on the Cumminsfiltraition.com website.
There are documents and videos to explain what "stratopore" is on the Cummins site.

Fleetguard are among the best filters made and regardless that hey are a Cummins company now still make filters for the rest of us.
But, the statapore media filters are not available for the "other" 6.7 crowd, Ford diesels.
Email reply from my inquiry to Cummins.
Thank you for contacting us using FleetMaster. The LF17494 does not contain StrataPore media. I do not show a StrataPore version of this filter. Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything else. Thanks again and have a great day!
