Baldwin Channel Flow Air Filters

Baldwin Filters' patent pending Channel Flow air filters provide superior filtration solutions in a lightweight, compact design for easy installation in less space. This straight-through air flow technology not only allows for less installation space, but offers manufacturers flexibility in design configuration.

The Baldwin Design

Baldwin's Channel Flow filter has more surface area than a traditional air filter, while requiring the same or less installation space. The Channel Flow media is formed by layering alternating rows of flat sheets and corrugated media. When completed, the media resembles a honeycomb network of channels.

As the media pack is formed, alternating channels are sealed with a bead of adhesive. Air enters open channels and flows through the media and out through adjacent open channels.

Increased air flow is needed for higher performance engines. Increased air flow is also needed to meet tougher exhaust emission standards.

With a traditional air filter, air typically enters through the side of the filter housing. The air must then work its way around the filter element, pass through the media, then turn 90° to exit the filter. By eliminating the turns the air needs to make in a traditional air filter, in-line air filters reduce restriction.

First Class for All Classes - Deka

The Intimidator...

Superior starting power, high reserve capacity and long lasting life, there's no match for the DEKA Intimidator Battery. The DEKA Intimidator batteries are an exact fit for many automotive applications such as: GMC, Chevy, Dodge, Chrysler, Ford, Lincoln and many more! Advanced AGM technology with dual purpose design makes the DEKA Intimidator great for quick starts and plenty of competition-quality accessory power for:

  • Stereo Systems
  • Boat & RV's
  • Hydraulic Lifts
  • Winches
  • On-Board Electronics
  • Industrial & Commercial Equipment and many other power demands
As the commercial user's needs change, so do our products. More and more trucks are depending on extra power for their electronics, tailgates, extra lights, HVAC systems, and many other power drains. These loads are becoming so great that starting batteries are experiencing severely shorter life cycles...through no fault of their own! Starting batteries simply aren't designed to deliver the continuous ultra-deep discharges that new auxiliary equipment demands, often when the engine is not running.

To meet the changing needs of large and small users and OEMs, we designed our premium starting and cycle service battery that can accommodate these auxiliary loads...but, also provide the high starting power needed to crank larger engines. Our unique Absorbed Glass Mat commercial battery is not only built for power, but it is vibration-resistant, spillproof and leakproof, maintenance-free, and delivers faster recharging and longer cycle life. From heavy-duty starting dump trucks to sleeper cabs maxed with accessory loads, these AGM batteries will work great for almost any application.

Thank You!! Our Customer Appreciation & Open House Was A Huge Success!


Thank you one and all for coming out to our first NBTC Customer Appreciation & Open House on July 8th, 2010. Several hundred people came by and enjoyed some food, drink, displays, monster truck, show cars, race cars and much more. Prizes were flowing--matter of fact, every attendee won a prize!

Thank you to all of our special vendors who helped make this event a success. A special thanks to Ramos Oil for bringing their famous hot dog cart and feeding us with those premium dogs. If it weren't for them, it could have been ugly when our propane tank ran dry on the BBQ grill in the middle of roasting our chicken. As it was, everyone had plenty to eat and there was a bit left over for the employees.

Thank you again for your participation. We appreciate it very much and look forward to doing this again in the future!
