Notes:

  • Luberfiner uses one filter; NapaGold uses two stacked atop each other – the larger media has a high micron rating, the smaller media has a lower micron rating.
  • Luberfiner uses a synthetic media with a wire mesh backing for additional strength.
  • Luberfiner and Fram are identical.
  • The Luberfiner weighed the least of the heavy duty oil filters.
