Are the Oil Filter Element and Oil Filter the Same Thing?
1 Answers
Oil filter element and oil filter are the same thing. More information about the oil filter element is as follows: 1. The oil filter element is the oil filter. The function of the oil filter is to filter out impurities, gum, and moisture from the oil, delivering clean oil to various lubrication points. 2. Due to the high viscosity of the oil itself and the high content of impurities in the oil, oil filters generally have three stages to improve filtration efficiency: the oil strainer, the oil coarse filter, and the oil fine filter. 3. If the oil is not filtered and directly enters the lubrication circuit, it will carry impurities into the friction surfaces of moving parts, accelerating component wear and reducing the engine's service life.
