Detailed Product Features and Specifications

The PO4612EX oil filter utilizes a synthetic blend media that balances filtration efficiency and flow rate, suitable for extended life oil change intervals. Its spin-on design simplifies installation and removal. The anti-drain back valve prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, reducing wear during startup. The bypass relief valve activates at 20 psi to maintain oil circulation if the filter becomes clogged. The silicone gasket ensures a reliable seal with a thickness of 0.18 inches and inside/outside diameters of 2.22 and 2.48 inches respectively, minimizing the risk of leaks. The filter’s robust construction supports a burst pressure of 256 psi, ensuring durability under high engine pressures.
