SAKURA FILTERS

Don’t let Bulldust ruin your trip

Australia’s outback is known for its iconic red dust, also known as Bulldust, which can cause havoc on vehicles and humans alike.

When driving on dry roads, Bulldust can leave behind a cloud of fine, powdery dust that can damage engines through the air intake system or cause respiratory problems.

Sakura Filters says it provides the solution to all adventure seekers with a complete range of 4WD kits that have been tested and proven to withstand the harsh outback environment.

Sakura Filters’ 4WD kits come equipped with Oil, Fuel, Air, and Cabin filters, making it a one-time purchase for your 4WD vehicle’s filtration needs.

Sakura says its Air Filter will effectively protect the engine from dust particles, while most late-model 4WD vehicles now require a cabin filter for the HVAC system.

Sakura 4WD kits are supplied with a Sakura Cabin Filter, which will protect the driver and passenger from harsh environmental pollutants, preventing dirt, dust, pollen, and allergens from entering the air conditioning system ensuring fresh air for all occupants.

Whilst traveling the outback, filling up fuel will be inevitable, and dirty diesel is a major concern and can ruin the trip,

Sakura Fuel Filters are included in the Sakura 4WD kits and provide essential protection to stop contaminants like dirt and dust that can clog the engines fuel system preventing the vehicle from running smoothly.

For added protection, a Pre-Filter assembly system like Sakura Filter Guard (separate from the 4WD kit) is also available in the Sakura range.

When planning for a tour with a group or traveling alone to the outback, preparation before the trip is key, and Sakura says its 4WD kits provide a complete filter replacement solution for your vehicle so it is ready to go. It says it is also a good idea to keep a spare 4WD kit or two in the back of your 4WD for emergencies.
