The Super Duty Oil Filter has a lofted fiber depth-type media that traps dirt throughout its entire thickness for exceptional filtering efficiency. It keeps oil clean and free of wear-causing contaminants. It provides up to 100 percent more capacity and up to 20 percent greater efficiency than other filters provide. It is ideal for use with extended oil drain intervals.

Built for Rugged Performance

The Super Duty Oil Filter has a heavy-duty case of drawn steel. The case is double-crimped at the base with rolled-under seaming to withstand extreme pressure surges and road shocks.

A relief valve is provided to assure ample oil flow and maintain proper engine oil pressure. It prevents oil starvation in the engine in the event the oil filter by-pass valve in the engine fails.
