Oil Filter – Z-83-417

Intrupa's spin-on engine lube filter is designed for internal-combustion forklifts. It threads onto the engine's filter mount with a 3/4 inch-16 UNF center thread, stands 3.5 inches tall on a 2-29/32 inch (73.8 mm) diameter can, and continuously strains the circulating engine oil to catch the metal wear particles, carbon, and grit that would otherwise reach the bearings and cylinder walls.

The filter carries an anti-drainback valve that holds oil in the can at shutdown so the engine sees pressure immediately on restart, along with an 8 PSID bypass valve that keeps oil flowing if the media loads up or the oil is cold and thick, and its media filters to roughly 18 micron nominal and 40 micron absolute. It replaces the original spin-on oil filter on the many forklift and industrial engines built around this common thread and gasket size, including engines cross-referenced to Toyota 15601-13051, Clark 6652366, and Perkins 2654403.

As with any oil filter it is a scheduled-service item, replaced at each oil change to keep the lube system clean before the media loads up and forces oil through the bypass unfiltered. Forklifts Etc. supplies it as the replacement spin-on engine oil filter.
