ACDelco – Engine Oil Filter (Part No.PF13)

Engine Oil Filter

from

$8.49
An ACDelco Professional, premium aftermarket E Oil Filter features a revolutionary design allowing the engine oil filter to function better while being lighter and more easily recycled than traditional filters. This filter fits your GM vehicle, as well as a wide range of other vehicles on the road today. Its unique element design yields more filtering area in a smaller canister. New thermal bonding techniques and non-metallic end caps improve the overall seal as well as remove wasted media rendered non-functional by adhesives used in traditional filters.

  • Has 10 times more open area in the core for improved flow
  • Has a steel shell, threaded plate assembly, and leaf spring that can all be recycled
  • Has a non-metallic cartridge that can be crushed to remove oil and can then be used as an energy source
  • Has a lubricity gasket for reduced installation torque
  • Has a full cover baseplate for easy installation in blind applications
  • Has a nylon core for higher strength and better flow characteristics
  • No metallic components on ‘clean side’ of filter media, therefore eliminating possible metallic contamination
  • Injection molded nylon core increases the structural strength to almost twice that of a traditional metal core
  • Synthetic end caps are ultrasonically welded to prevent media blocked by adhesives used in traditional filters
