About Airtex Automotive Division

Few names in the automotive aftermarket carry the legacy of Airtex Automotive Division. Founded in 1935 in northeast Ohio — originally as the Chefford Master Manufacturing Company — Airtex began by producing replacement fuel pump repair kits for Ford and Chevrolet vehicles. Nearly nine decades later, the brand has grown into one of the most recognized suppliers of fuel delivery and engine cooling components in North America, while expanding its catalog to cover a wide range of electrical and HVAC parts as well.

Airtex is certified to ISO/TS 16949 standards, the same rigorous quality benchmark required of original equipment manufacturers. The brand works directly with automakers including Ford, GM, and Mazda to develop application-specific components, which gives their aftermarket parts a genuine OE-production pedigree. The same robotic assembly processes used on the OEM line are applied to aftermarket production, and every pump and component is tested throughout the manufacturing process to ensure leak-free, quiet, and reliable operation right out of the box.

Beyond fuel and water pumps, Airtex has developed a broad electrical and HVAC parts catalog that addresses many of the most common failure points on today's vehicles. Their starter solenoids and starter relays are engineered to meet or exceed OE specifications, ensuring reliable engine cranking across a wide range of domestic and import applications. For climate control, Airtex HVAC blower motor resistors restore proper fan speed control to heating and air conditioning systems, addressing one of the most frequently diagnosed comfort complaints in the shop.

Airtex also covers the critical wiring side of the equation. Their wire terminal clips and ignition switch connectors provide exact-fit pigtail and connector solutions that eliminate the guesswork of splicing or fabricating wiring repairs. These components are designed for direct plug-in replacement, preserving circuit integrity and reducing comebacks.

With a catalog spanning more than 2,000 parts and applications covering American, European, and Asian vehicles, Airtex delivers the depth and fitment confidence that professional technicians and serious DIYers depend on. Their products are designed to fit vehicles from brands like Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and Hyundai, making Airtex a go-to source for high-volume, high-confidence repairs.
