Washable and reusable, it offers a lifetime of superior engine protection and enhanced performance with a precise vehicle-specific fit. ## Description In general, vehicles such as car or motorcycles require a total particle filtration efficiency up to a minimum size of 10 microns, to avoid any risk of passage of foreign objects that may damage the mechanical components downstream of the intake system (Air Flow Sensors, injectors, valves and segments). OEM air filters are made of paper and their main function is to protect the engine. These filters have high resistance to the air flow, which reduces the inlet pressure and reduces the engine's performance. BMC's air filters provide a considerably greater air flow. Furthermore, compared to a conventional paper filter, which at the time of maintenance must be replaced, the BMC air filter (being reusable) has a life equal to that of the vehicle itself. Another type of air filters on the market are synthetic filters, which BMC has produced for years only for non-road applications. The main difference between the BMC oiled cotton filters and filters made of synthetic material (for example plastic canvas) is the principle of impurities stoppage. The synthetics allow passage of particles in the size of the micro-filter material: it follows that a filter with 80 micron holes allows the passage of all items below that size, stopping only particles larger than the size of the hole (an example: the sand has a size of about 50 microns). The cotton has a larger plot, which favors the passage of a large flow of air and through the combination of different layers containing oil, ensure the stoppage of all the impurities from 7 microns up. To date, this concept is the best solution for both better filtration and higher performances. Review: as described - as described ## Features - BMC Filters are constructed using a process called "Full Moulding" developed by the BMC F1 R&D team - BMC air filters are designed and produced to ensure a higher air flow than OEM air filters - The filtering material is composed of a special cotton gauze soaked with low-viscosity oil to give you the best air permeability - BMC Air Filters are washable and reusable, perfect for high performance applications ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00FX6PFQ0 | | Automotive Fit Type | Vehicle Specific Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,810,387 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #332 in Automotive Performance Air Filters #19,295 in Automotive Replacement Air Filters | | Brand | BMC | | Brand Name | BMC | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 out of 5 stars 4 Reviews | | Fit Type | Vehicle Specific Fit | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08055732590604 | | Included Components | Direct Fit Air Filters | | Item Type Name | Direct Fit Air Filters | | Item Weight | 2.6 Pounds | | Manufacturer | BMC | | Manufacturer Part Number | FB742/08 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Manufacturer’s Warranty | | Model Number | FB742/08 | | Number of Items | 1 | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | MCLAREN 11F0217CP | | OEM Part Number | MCLAREN 11F0217CP | | Product Grade | Replacement Part | | Shape | Rectangular | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** BMC - **OEM Part Number:** MCLAREN 11F0217CP - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 08055732590604 - **Shape:** Rectangular - **Manufacturer:** BMC ## Images ![BMC (FB742/08) High Performance Air Filter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91GbJ7+Bi8L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ as described *by S***. on September 15, 2018* as described ## Frequently Bought Together - BMC (FB742/08) High Performance Air Filter - Castrol SRF Racing Brake Fluid - 1 Liter 12512 - BMC (WA250-500) Automotive Air Filter Complete Wash Kit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/35150128-bmc-fb742-08-high-performance-air-filter](https://www.desertcart.at/products/35150128-bmc-fb742-08-high-performance-air-filter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-07-25*
