PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
The
AMSOIL Super Duty Oil Filter (SDF) is designed to provide maximum
filtration while meeting the high flow demands of modern automobiles.
The AMSOIL SDF contains a special cellulose, synthetic and glass blend
media that offers the best possible balance of long life, high
capacity and overall efficiency.
Traps
Dirt Throughout Media Thickness
The
AMSOIL SDF 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. The AMSOIL
SDF Oil Filter 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
AMSOIL SDF 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.
Assures
Oil Flow with Relief Valve
On
most filters a relief valve is provided to assure ample oil flow. It
prevents oil starvation in the engine in the event the media becomes
saturated.
Prevents
Oil Drainage During Engine Shutdown
On
filter installations where the mounting is sideways or upright, dirty
oil could drain out of the filter when the engine is shut off. The
AMSOIL SDF has an anti-drainback valve that keeps trapped contaminants
in the filter when the engine is not running.
APPLICATION
AMSOIL
INC. recommends changing the AMSOIL SDF according to the following
guidelines.
In
gasoline-fueled engines using any AMSOIL motor oil except AMSOIL
XL-7500 Synthetic Motor Oil, change the filter at 12,500-mile or
six-month intervals. In gasoline-fueled engines using AMSOIL XL-7500
Synthetic Motor Oil, change the filter at 7,500-mile or six-month
intervals. If a Hastings or other filter is used, filter should be
changed at manufacturer recommendations.
In
diesel-fueled large truck engines, change the filter(s) at the engine
manufacturer's recommended oil change interval. In diesel-fueled light
trucks, including pickups and vans, change the filter at 7,000-mile or
six-month intervals.
When
using an AMSOIL Oil Filter with conventional motor oils, refer to the
owner's manual for the recommended oil filter change interval.
