Since 1954 when WIX patented
the first spin-on oil filter, WIX Filters has been
at the forefront of oil filter technology and
performance for passenger cars, light trucks, heavy
trucks and buses, and off-highway vehicles and
powersport applications. SAE J806 tests prove that
WIX oil filters hold 45% more dirt than the leading
national brand - meaning that WIX filters keep
filtering long after the competition has completely
quit.
WIX oil filters
have a full metal base plate for superior strength
at the double seal. They also feature a silicone
anti-drainback valve that stays flexible in extreme
temperatures. This improves oil flow and keeps oil
in the filter to prevent dry starts.
WIX oil filters
use an up-front by-pass valve. This design is
superior to top-mounted valves because it helps to
keep oil from washing past dirty media and entering
the engine. The glass-enhanced media in WIX oil
filters offers greater efficiency, capturing more 10
to 12 micron sized particles than other
cellulose/synthetic blend medias. They also have a
coil steel spring to ensure internal filter parts
are sealed properly. Consult our

Guide to find the right WIX oil filter for your
vehicle.
