Detailed Product Description
WIX engineered the 46842 for HD air filtration where consistent airflow and dust control matter. The skip-a-pleat media stabilization and pleat stabilization beads referenced in the product line help support media integrity, while the polyurethane or high-strength end caps and expanded metal body add durability in harsh operating conditions. This makes the WIX 46842 a practical choice for buyers comparing Wix 46842, NAPA Gold 6842, or other cross-reference air filter part numbers for the same application.

Installation Notes and Tips
Verify housing dimensions before installation, especially the 23.356-inch height, 9.203-inch outer diameter, and 5.845-inch bottom inner diameter. Confirm the filter seats correctly in the radial seal housing and inspect the intake tube, housing, and sealing surfaces for dirt or damage before installing the new filter.
