- A Spin-On Oil Filter is one of the most commonly used types of oil filters, particularly in cars and trucks.
- It is designed to be easily replaced and typically features a metal canister that screws onto the engine’s filter mount.
- Inside the canister is a filter element (often made of paper, synthetic material, or a combination) that captures contaminants and impurities in the engine oil.
- Clean oil is vital for lubricating engine components and minimizing friction, which helps extend the engine’s lifespan.
- It is a type of oil filter use in internal combustion engines, particularly in automobiles.
- It is called “spin-on” because it is design to be easily installed and removed by spinning it onto and off of a threaded mounting point on the engine.
- The process of filtration involves engine oil passing through the filter medium.
- As the oil flows through the medium, contaminants are trap, allowing clean oil to continue circulating through the engine.
