Its BetaRatio of 2\/20=6\/20 indicates the filter’s efficiency in capturing contaminants, helping to maintain clean engine oil. The bypass relief valve is calibrated between 8 and 11 psi, allowing oil to bypass the filter element if it becomes clogged, ensuring continuous oil flow and engine protection. With a burst pressure rating of 250 psi, this filter withstands high-pressure conditions without failure. The enhanced cellulose media provides reliable filtration at a 21-micron level, balancing filtration efficiency and flow rate, which ranges from 9 to 11 gallons per minute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Wix 51359 engine oil filter is compatible with various light-duty trucks and passenger vehicles, including Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado models.
