Absolute
Efficiency
Efficiency refers to a filter’s ability to trap
wear-causing contaminants and prevent them from
circulating throughout the engine. Ea Heavy-Duty
Extended-Life Oil Filters are engineered using
full-synthetic media that provides an average filtering
efficiency of 98.7 percent at 20 microns in accordance
with industry standard ISO 4548-12, ranking them among
the most efficient available for heavy-duty
applications. Increased efficiency helps reduce wear for
long engine life.Less
Restriction
Ea Heavy-Duty Oil Filters have lower restriction than
conventional cellulose media filters. Their small
synthetic fibers trap smaller particles and hold more
contaminants, resulting in lower restriction. During
cold-temperature warm-up periods, an Ea Heavy-Duty Oil
Filter allows the oil to flow through the filter more
easily than a typical cellulose filter. Lower
restriction helps circulate oil more quickly, promoting
long engine life.
Contaminant Capacity
A filter’s capacity refers to the amount of
contaminants it can hold and still remain operational.
AMSOIL Ea Heavy-Duty Oil Filters have a high holding
capacity for small, wear-causing contaminants.
Superior Construction
Ea® Heavy-Duty Oil Filters are made with premium-grade
full-synthetic media. The strictly controlled processing
of this media ensures accurate filter construction.
Over the service life of a
conventional cellulose filter, hot oil can degrade the
resins that bind the media. Ea Heavy-Duty Oil Filters’
full-synthetic media technology is resin-free. It uses a
wire screen backing that is pleated with the media for
superior strength.
Ea Heavy-Duty Oil Filters are
constructed with HNBR gaskets that are fully tested over
long durations in numerous severe environments. The
filters also feature fully tucked seams, a molded
element seal, roll-formed threads and a long-lasting,
premium-grade silicone anti-drain valve.
Applications
Ea Heavy-Duty Oil Filters are recommended for heavy-duty
on- and off-road gasoline and diesel applications
including, but not limited to, over-the-road trucks;
dump trucks; refuse haulers; school buses; farm
tractors; mining, construction and industrial equipment;
and more. Popular manufacturers include Caterpillar,
Peterbilt, Mack, Kenworth, John Deere, Ford and several
others. Consult the online
Heavy Duty Filter Lookup at www.amsoil.com for
specific product recommendations.
Service Life
Ea Heavy-Duty Extended-Life Oil Filters should be
changed at time of oil change, not to exceed one year.
