Detailed Description

WIX 51521 is an engine oil filter engineered for normal commuting and severe-duty use, including stop-and-go traffic, short trips, dirt roads, construction sites, and interstate travel. Its filtration media is rated at 21 microns, and the filter is built to trap more dirt and contaminants than Protec in demanding service. For vehicles that call for it, the silicone anti-drainback valve helps keep oil in the filter during shutdown, supporting quicker oil pressure on restart.
