Do I need to buy OEM replacement filters for my dust collector?

In some cases, the dust collector manufacturer may require the use of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts and consumables, including dust collector filters, to maintain the warranty. In that case, you should purchase OEM cartridge filters for the duration of the warranty period. Beyond that, the most important thing to consider is the quality of the replacement cartridge filter. Some aftermarket cartridge filters, such as those made by third-party suppliers without specific expertise in industrial cartridge filters, are made cheaply and do not have the same quality as filters made by the OEM. These off-brand cartridge filters, often made cheaply overseas, may use inferior materials and have poor quality control. That’s why it’s important to order replacement cartridge filters from a supplier that guarantees quality. At RoboVent, all of our replacement cartridge filters are manufactured in the USA under strict quality control conditions and backed by independent lab results. Our filters are guaranteed to meet or exceed OEM specifications for filtration efficiency, longevity and performance.
