AIR FILTER SPRINT FILTER RACING DUCATI PANIGALE V4 - V4R - PM160S F1-85
P08 F1-85 material currently used in MotoGP and WSBK
SPRINT FILTER is official supplier Ducati corse .
Sprint Filter with the P08 has changed the concept of special air filter. No more materials that tend to crumble (cotton) or high pressure drop (foam) but an innovative material that allows a constant flow of air and calibrated. With the subsequent birth of the two patented sealed air filters P037 and P08F1-85, it allowed the use of a performance air filter even in difficult conditions (P037) and to obtain results unthinkable for any other manufacturer of performance air filters with equal filtering power (P08F1-85).
The Sprint Filter P08, P037 and P08F1-85 air filters, if properly maintained, will last the life of the motorcycle and it will no longer be necessary to replace the air filter as with the original filter. If you compare a OEM paper air filter with a Sprint Filter P08 air filter. As you can see, the paper air filters are easy to install and the folds have an irregular shape. It seems obvious that the original air filter can not guarantee a constant air flow. The folds of the Sprint Filter P08, P037 and P08F1-85 air filters in polyester are constant and built more sturdily, so that the flow of air is always stable and efficient.
The cleaning procedure for the Sprint Filter air filter is quick and easy: just use a simple jet of air, in the opposite direction of suction, to remove most of the debris collected by the filter. No washing or drying is required. The air filter can then be reinstalled immediately. Maintenance of the air filter is essential for the protection, maintenance and efficiency of the engine: a clean and undamaged air filter always ensures the correct amount of clean air for the filter housing. Another aspect of air filter maintenance is the time required for cleaning. In addition to the disassembly and reassembly times, the cotton or foam air filters require the motorcycle to be stopped for washing, drying and lubricating the filter element, none of these operations are necessary. with a Sprint Filter air filter. Only Sprint Filter air filters should not be oiled to retain dust.
The air filters, on the one hand, must ensure good air circulation, on the other, they must allow filtration to prevent significant particles are found in the cylinders. Both operations are antagonistic and the air filter will be better when it optimizes these functions. Cars and motorcycles are normally equipped with paper air filters from manufacturers. Previously, the usual solution for sports air filters was to use cotton diapers soaked in oil. Sprint Filter, with the adoption of a polyester filter membrane, leaps forward and makes all previous systems obsolete. The Sprint Filter polyester fabric is extremely permeable and strong, it is not affected by bending during construction, pressure difference created during operation, or maintenance. The cotton air filter, meanwhile, has a shape dependent on the overlap and the number of layers used; moreover, it tends to deform during the phases described above and especially during the use and maintenance phases, so it will be placed in areas of high filtration value and other low value.
The Sprint P08, P037 and P08F1-85 filters were born in the competitions. The Sprint filter filter P08F1-85 is the most used air filter in the MotoGP, WTCR, Moto3, Superbike, Supersport and Superstock world championships. Sprint Filter tests new solutions every day for maximum filtration and minimal power loss. Maverick Viñales, winner of the Moto3 Championship (2013), Kenan Sofuoglu (Supersport 2010, 2012 and 2016), Sam Lowes in Supersport (2013), Michael Van der Mark (Supersport) are part of the 2014 motorcycles), Niccolò Bulega (World Championship FIM Moto3 Junior 2015), Lorenzo Dalla Porta (2016 FIM Moto3 Junior World Championship).

Sprint filters P08, P037 and P08F1-85 are the air filters that offer the best performance on all engines. The numerous results on the test bench show that the Sprint filter is the best solution for permanently obtaining the right amount of air. This is achieved by optimizing the surfaces of any air filter. In fact, Sprint Filter works on the single air filter by optimizing the efficiency of each original filter box using a flow bench. The maximum accessible surface is: more air, more power, more filtration.
