Allstar Performance 14" x 3" Paper Air Filter Element — pleated media, compact replacement

The Allstar Performance ALL26020 is a 14" x 3" paper air filter element engineered to boost airflow while protecting engine intake from dirt and debris.

This paper air filter element from Allstar Performance is a direct, high-quality replacement designed for applications that require a compact, efficient filter. Its pleated paper media balances filtration and airflow so engines draw cleaner air without a large pressure drop. The element fits into compatible housings where a 14" diameter and 3" thickness are required and ships in a compact package—useful for shops stocking parts or DIYers performing routine maintenance.

How does this filter improve airflow without sacrificing protection?

The ALL26020 uses pleated paper media to increase filter surface area, allowing more air to pass through while trapping particulates. The design reduces flow restriction compared with flat media and helps maintain consistent engine breathing under varied loads.

• Pleated paper construction for increased surface area
• Designed to balance airflow and particle capture
• Compact 14" diameter for fitments with limited space

What are the exact size and packaging details?

This element measures 14 inches in outer diameter and 3 inches in thickness, packaged for safe shipping. Package dimensions and weight are provided for storage and logistics planning.

How simple is installation and maintenance?

Installation is straightforward when replacing a like-for-like element: remove the old media, seat the new element in the housing, and check the seal. Maintenance intervals depend on driving conditions, but visual inspection and periodic replacement keep intake systems functioning properly.

• Direct element swap for compatible housings
• Inspect and replace based on dust exposure and runtime
• Check sealing surfaces for leaks after installation

Which vehicles or setups will this element fit?

The 14" x 3" sizing suits many performance and restoration applications that accept a round paper element with those dimensions. Always verify fitment against the airbox or intake adapter before ordering to ensure compatibility.
