The filter box says that Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filters contain a synthetic fiber blend filter element. Are these related to the synthetic components found in Mobil 1 synthetic motor oils?
No. Most conventional oil filters use a filter medium that is made of cellulose – typically wood fiber – and polyester fibers. Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filters combines a mixture of synthetic micro fibers and natural fibers to produce the most efficient oil filter on the market. The synthetic components of Mobil 1 motor oil are chemically synthesized liquids. The synthetic fibers in Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filters yield the following key benefits: • A much more efficient filter, removing more particles per pass through the filter than conventional filter media. • Less resistance to oil flow, reducing the potential for the filter to restrict the flow of oil to your engine. • A larger surface area to trap more contaminant particles, allowing the longer service intervals.
