3 Degrees F) Pressure relief valves help maintain oil supply 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 (Dome-end relief valves do not offer this protection) Robust steel center tubes and lock seam design withstands pressure surges and help prevent leakageDesign Features 80% collection efficiency on particles 20 microns or larger Bonded end plates help keep consistent pleat spacing Cellulose and polyester blend media is formulated for high capacity and strength The polyester content enhances the strength of the media to withstand extended exposure to hot engine oil Motorcraft Oil Filter Product AttributesFL-820 SDesign & Testing.
