Luber-finer Air Filter
About Luber-finer
Luber-finer has been engineering filtration solutions since 1936, when the brand first took shape in a Los Angeles garage catering to the demands of early racing circuits. Luber-finer began operation offering oil filters for passenger cars, but it didn't take long before the rigors of commercial trucking and heavy equipment came calling. Early success led to a demand for truck applications and the development of the legendary Luber-finer 750 bypass filter — a product that set the tone for nearly nine decades of filtration innovation.
In 1979, Luber-finer became part of Champion Laboratories, one of the world's largest makers of vehicle parts. That union gave the brand the manufacturing scale and R&D resources to expand its lineup well beyond its California roots. In 2020, both Luber-finer and Champion Laboratories were acquired by First Brands Group, LLC (formerly TRICO Group), a global automotive parts powerhouse that continues to invest in the brand's growth and technology.
What Luber-finer Makes
Luber-finer's trusted filtration solutions for on-highway and off-road vehicles include premium lube and oil filters, diesel fuel filters, air and cabin air filters, hydraulic and coolant filtration products. Whether you're maintaining a long-haul fleet or keeping heavy construction equipment running in the field, Luber-finer builds filters engineered to handle it.
The brand specializes in providing fleets around the world with premium filtration solutions for on-highway vehicles, and its heavy-duty and light-duty filters are also used in many off-road applications such as the oil and gas industry, construction, agriculture, mining, and marine. Few filter brands can claim that breadth of real-world application.
At the heart of the Luber-finer lineup are two critical product categories. The brand's engine oil filters are purpose-built to protect everything from everyday passenger cars to the most demanding Class 8 diesel engines. For diesel-powered equipment, Luber-finer's fuel filters tackle the increasingly complex challenge of keeping modern fuel systems clean and free of water contamination — a critical concern as diesel fuel chemistry continues to evolve under tighter emissions standards.
Why Technicians and Fleet Managers Trust Luber-finer
The brand's York, South Carolina manufacturing facility received ISO 9002 registration, making Champion Laboratories the first filter manufacturer in the United States to be certified — a milestone that reflects the rigorous quality standards Luber-finer products are held to. Champion was also one of only 158 companies around the world recognized by General Motors with the prestigious QSP Supplier of the Year award.
From extended-life spin-on oil filters to advanced fuel/water separator designs, since 1936, when the Luber-finer 750 truck bypass oil filter was invented, engineering excellence has been built into every filter they make. For anyone serious about protecting their engine investment, Luber-finer is a name that consistently delivers.
