PARTS INFORMATION
Oil Filters
Oil Filters
Engine oil lubricates are vital moving parts in the engine as the crankshaft bearings, pistons, connecting rods and valves to ensure that they move smoothly. But, oil becomes dirty due to iron particles, carbon and so on, and this dirt damages the moving engine parts, thereby shortening engine life.
Oil filters play an important role in removing these contaminants from the engine oil. Keeping the engine supplied with Oil Filter clean oil prevents excessive engine wear.
Nissan Genuine Oil Filters feature:
- High filtration efficiency
- Long service life
- Prevention of oil leakage
- Oil retention in filter case
This paper has two functions: it simultaneously traps contaminants and provides a smooth flow of oil. These functions are carried out extremely well because the paper with fine mesh has been specially selected and has a large filtration area.
How Genuine filter paper differs from non – genuine
On the outside, all oil filters look alike. But inside, they differ a lot.
- Material — The fine paper of genuine oil filters enables them to remove particles as small as 20 microns in diameter.
- Filtration Area
All engine oil filters or heads are equipped with a bypass valve reduced, allowing for a much smaller pore size while retaining a normal pressure differential.
A genuine filter comes with a superb NBR rubber 0 -ring sealer that prevents leakage over a long period of time: it is not loosened by engine vibrations or damaged by heat or oil
Non -Genuine oil filters cause problems
- The coarse filter paper in non -genuine oil filters cannot prevent contaminants from passing through, causing the engine oil to soon become dirty. This contaminated oil causes undue wear to your Nissan engine.
- Oil leakage because of poor filter construction and poor rubber packing can cause sudden engine seizures at high- speed driving.
- Non -genuine oil filters have a shorter service life because of their smaller filtration area. So, you are forced to replace oil Poor Adhesive Lack of End -to -end filters more frequently.
