Synthetic Oil Filters

A great deal of emphasis is placed on the importance of using of the most advanced high-quality lubricants, but superior filtration is often taken for granted. The general attitude displayed by many consumers is to use whatever is cheapest, even when they’ve invested in superior lubrication. While AMSOIL synthetic motor oils provide unbeatable protection, performance and economy, they require the assistance of filtration. Without filtration, by-products from the combustion process and abrasive materials ingested from the air will ultimately destroy an engine.

The SAE paper on filtration discusses the introduction of synthetic fibers into the oil filter market, which offer “the capability of achieving high levels of filtration without the traditional sacrifice of dirt holding capacity and increased flow restriction.” Today, a new pinnacle has been reached with synthetic nanofiber technology and AMSOIL Ea Oil Filters offer even greater performance, the message then was the same as it is now; removal of particles measuring 2 to 25 microns is the key to controlling engine wear, and there is a direct correlation between oil filter efficiency and engine wear.

Beyond Motorcycle Oils

Bikers experience first-hand the mechanical stress their motorcycles endure. Modern bikes demand lubricants that protect against high internal engine heat, maintain film strength on gears under extreme pressure and guard against rust formation during storage. Motorcycles rev high and run hot, and lubrication failure could result in consequences for both vehicles and passengers. In addition, motorcyclists invest a great deal of time and money into their bikes, and they demand products that provide the best performance and protection for their investments.

AMSOIL Synthetic Motorcycle Oils deliver maximum viscosity protection for hot-running American and foreign motorcycle engines, transmissions and chain cases. Their exclusive synthetic formulations effectively reduce friction and heat, keeping bikes running cooler and minimizing oil consumption.
