Choosing the Wrong Oil Filter is More Terrifying Than Choosing the Wrong Oil!

Many car owners regularly clean and maintain their cars. The most basic maintenance is naturally to change the oil! When changing the oil, another thing must be changed at the same time is the oil filter. So, what exactly does this oil filter do? Does its quality affect the engine? Let's talk about it below: the oil filter you don't know!

1. Filton oil filter: the patron saint of engine

During the working process of the engine, in order to reduce the friction between the relative moving parts in the engine, reduce the wear of the parts, and prolong the service life of the parts, it is necessary to continuously transport the oil to the friction surface of the moving parts, and form an oil film between the moving parts for lubrication so as to prevent the engine wear caused by the dry friction which may reduce engine life.


However, it is inevitable that some metal wear debris, dust, carbon deposits and colloidal deposits that are oxidized at high temperatures, and some moisture and other impurities will continue to be mixed into the lubricating oil. In order to filter out these harmful substances such as mechanical impurities, colloids, carbon deposits, keep the lubricating oil clean, and then ensure the lubrication action of the oil, the designers of the engine have added an oil filter to the engine lubrication system.


The upstream of the oil filter is the oil pump, and the downstream are the parts that need to be lubricated in the engine. Through the Filton oil filter, clean oil can be supplied to the crankshaft, connecting rod, camshaft, supercharger, piston ring, etc., for lubrication, cooling, and cleaning, thereby extending the life of these parts and protecting the engine.

Advantages of the key components of Filton oil filter:


  • Filter material

The filter paper of the oil filter generally needs to have characteristics of heat and oil resistance, mainly because the oil temperature will rise to about 120 ℃ when the engine is working, and the viscosity of the oil will also change correspondingly under the continuous change of temperature, thereby affecting the flow of oil passing through. Our oil filter adopts a filter material of multi-layer gradient structure with high-efficiency capabilities of particle filtering and interception, and strong impurity storage, which can maintain the ability to filter and store impurities under severe temperature changes, while ensuring sufficient and stable oil pressure supply.

  • Check valve

When the engine is turned off, it can prevent the oil in the oil filter shell from draining; when the engine is restarted, the pressurized oil can open the valve instantly, and the oil enters the oil filter instantly. The oil filtered by the filter material or going through the bypass valve can reach the engine in time to ensure continuous oil when the engine is working. The check valve of Filton oil filter uses high-standard and high-quality rubber materials to ensure the stability and sealing effectiveness of the check valve when it is opened/closed.

  • Bypass valve 

It can protect the key components of the engine under special circumstances. The by-pass valve of Filton oil filter can ensure the stability and effectiveness of the opening/closing under the accurate size calculation, and prevent the dry wear because of engine having no lubricating oil supply when the oil filter is clogged or the oil kinematic viscosity is too high, thereby protecting the engine.

Finally, as a warm prompt, the oil filter has a certain service life, and it must be replaced in time when it expires. When buying an oil filter, you must choose a product from a regular channel. Using cheap and inferior products may damage the engine and the loss outweighs the gain.


Filton oil filter adopts filter material of high-efficiency multi-layer gradient structure, which has high filtration accuracy, strong dirt holding capacity, strong resistance to corrosive chemicals, and has a corrosion-resistant shell with a gorgeous appearance, bypass valves with precise opening pressure and check valves with better performance. It can safely and deeply filter the impurities in the oil and prolong the service life of the engine. Our oil filter is a good companion for car maintenance!
