It is critical that the oil filter performs properly during the entire oil service interval. Ford Motor Company contributed to the development and creation of the USCAR-36 Oil Filter Specification. The Society of Automotive Engineers adopted the new specification as SAE USCAR-36. All Motorcraft filters produced after January 1, 2017 are aligned with SAE USCAR-36 specification.<br />High performance features that help keep engines safe - Anti-drain back valves to help prevent dry starts; Anti-drain back valves that are made of silicone provide greater cold/heat resistance (down to -75 and up to +450 degrees F); Pressure relief valves help maintain supply of oil to the engine under extreme cold conditions or if the filter gets clogged; Location of relief valve in the majority of Ford application filters prevents settled debris from entering and potentially damaging the engine; Large filter media area provides optimum filtering efficiency throughout the oil change cycle. All Motorcraft oil filters are subjected to extensive testing to ensure they work as designed throughout the oil change cycle Dimensions (Overall): 4.4 Inches (H) x 3.9 Inches (W) x 3.9 Inches (D) Weight: .9 Pounds Material: Metal New Oil Filter Requirements for Ford and Lincoln Vehicles.
