HOW IS THIS OIL CLEANLINESS ACHIEVED?
THE V8F FILTER INCORPORATES BONDED GLASSFIBRE MEDIA
GLASSFIBRE MEDIA (10 MICRON EFFICIENCY: 73 % )
(MAG 100X)
THIS PHOTO SHOWS THE FINE GLASSFIBRE FIBRES THAT ARE BONDED TOGETHER TO FORM A TOUGH AND RIGID STRUCTURE.
CONTAMINATION ENTERING THE MEDIA IS CAPTURED AND RETAINED.
THE WHOLE 5 LAYER FILTER MEDIA PACK INCLUDES:
A FINE EPOXY COATED STEEL OUTER SUPPORT MESH,
A HIGH CAPACITY GLASSFIBRE PREFILTRATION LAYER,
THE ABSOLUTE RATED FILTER MEDIA IN THE CENTRE,
A DOWNSTREAM DRAINAGE & SUPPORT LAYER
AND FINALLY ANOTHER STEEL SUPPORT MESH.
THE 5 LAYER CONSTRUCTION CROSS SECTION
---------------------------
ITS VERY PROBABLE HOWEVER THAT YOUR PRESENT FILTER INCORPORATES PAPER MEDIA.
PAPER FILTER MEDIA (10 MICRON EFFICIENCY: 0% )
(MAG 100X)
LOOK HOW BULKY THE PAPER FIBRES ARE...
MUCH OF THE FILTER OIL FLOW CAPABILITY AND DIRT HOLDING CAPACITY IS RESTRICTED AND WASTED BY THE MUCH LARGER PAPER FIBRES.
THIS IS A SINGLE LAYER CONSTRUCTION AND IS NON-BONDED (FIBRES WILL FLEX AND MOVE DURING COLD STARTS ... AND HIGH REVS!) CAUSING PREVIOUSLY CAPTURED CONTAMINATION TO BE RELEASED BACK INTO CIRCULATION TO CARRY ON WRECKING YOUR ENGINE!
