Great product! The housing is heavy duty and nothing leaks at all. I have this filter downstream of 2 dryers, I only rely on this filter to remove oil mist and sub micron debris. It does it's job, I have no streaks or marks on my Hypertherm plasma consumables and they literally last forever. I also don't anticipate needing to change the filter much at all since it stays dry. If you use this filter to remove moisture and debris/oil mist, you may end up changing the filter quite often do to water being trapped in the filter housing with no way to drain it or dry the filter element.

Bought a new plasma cutter and after some research, settled on this filter. It is a quality filter that does a great job. Just wish it came with a mounting bracket so I could mount it to the back of my welding cart. Ended up making one that looks nearly OEM. Installed quick disconnects on both sides so I can check and change the filter as needed.

Very nice unit , robustly built & nice filter , would buy again if need be . Would recommend depending on use & humidity removing bowl every now & then & make sure powder coat is still doing it's job on the inside & not beginning to part & if it is clean it up & give it a little paint

second one I have purchased, first one was 20 years ago and worked great for a very long time, it finally wore out and I went without a water catcher for a while (then my tools stated to break down) so I purchased another one as its allot cheaper to replace these units every 10 or 15 years than it is to buy new air tools.

Used for many years. Lube the gasket and release all air pressure when servicing.

Toilet paper roll style. If you don't have one of these or its equivalent on your plasma cutter, you are doing it wrong

I was having some issues with fish eyes in my paint jobs. This provides the extra little bit of care to make the paint job come out perfectly.

The filter arrived just minutes ago, so this isn't a performance review. First impression is very good. The aluminum casting is excellent. The bosses for the 1/4&#34; air line fittings are adequate, but if you like to over-torque fittings, you could crack these. The mounting lugs on the bottom are also OK, but a shop gorilla could also break these. Just be reasonable. The top screw is smooth and will clamp the seal into oblivion if you overdo it.<br /><br />The housing seals with a square-section o-ring, like a spin-on oil filter. There's a groove in the lower half and a flat surface in on the top. My example is true and should seal fine.<br /><br />The &#34;toilet-paper-like&#34; filter is not like toilet paper at all. They call it cellulose, and it feels something like Styrofoam. It is far more substantial than tissue paper. I cannot imagine putting a roll of toilet paper in my air supply to become soggy and shed lint into tools, paint guns, or plasma cutter, no matter the cost savings. Isn't this why I bought a filter in the first place?<br /><br />Researching a Motor Guard filter was confusing, honestly a big waste of time. Their marketing department must stay up nights dreaming up ways to repackage the three particulate/moisture filters they make. Here's what I've concluded, based on Motor Guard's own published facts, not rumor:<br /><br />The M-26 and M-30 filters are identical, including the mounting bracket--the bracket has the same part number for each. The M-26, advertised for plasma cutters, seems to have two more bolts and two more nuts included for attachment to the plasma cutter cabinet. End of story. Did that deserve a separate model number? The M-30, for wall or bench mounting, seems to expect you to choose your own two hardware pieces for the wall. Both have 1/4&#34; NPT fittings on the bottom; rated 45 SCFM@80PSI.<br /><br />The M-40 is a higher flow filter, 3/8&#34; NPT fittings, 60 SCFM@80PSI. It has inline air fittings on top.<br /><br />The M-60 is the highest flow, 1/2&#34; NPT fittings, 100 SCFM@80PSI. Inline fittings on top.<br /><br />ALL FOUR FILTERS USE THE SAME FILTER ELEMENT, M-723.<br /><br />I bought the M-26-KIT, but still wasn't quite sure what I was going to get. It has the apparent two extra nuts and bolts over the M-30 spec (and the bracket, of course), and the kit came with THREE filter elements--one installed in the housing, plus two extras wrapped in plastic, just like the picture of the display box suggests...but that could have been a cardboard riser holding up one spare filter.<br /><br />There is an M-45-KIT. M-45? What's THAT? It's actually an M-30 housing with a total of three filter elements. Since the M-26 and M-30 are identical, I believe this means that the only difference between an M-26-KIT and an M-45-KIT is two bolts and two nuts. Or it may come with pepperoni.<br /><br />And of course, you want to name the exact same housing/bracket *both* M-26 and M-30, then name the kits M-26 and M-45 respectively, just to keep customers happy. &#34;Hi. I'm John, and Henry. Yes, please, I'd like to order an M-26-30-45 thingy with fries, and can you super size that, but use the same size cup?&#34; Just call it a 1/4&#34; Motor Guard Kit and throw the two extra fasteners in every box. Or leave them out.<br /><br />This was a lot of work. On further reflection, I think they named some of the kits after the CFM numbers, causing the double nomenclature. I found an M-100 kit that uses the M-60, so it fits the pattern. Wow.

This is my second motor guard m-60 filter. The first one became corroded and pitted from moisture sitting in the housing over several years of use. I can't complain with the life of these filters and am very happy with the filtration. I use it to keep contaminants out of my plasma cutter. Works great! I recommend opening the housing when not in use to allow the moisture to escape that may have made it pastany water separators and filters in your air system.

I have a Hypertherm Powermax 85 on a 5'x5' plasma table. I was running a desiccant dryer from Harbor freight and having loads of issues with the torch not starting an arc. To make a long story short I added this filter after the desiccant dryer and it seems to of made a world of a difference.
