Question 1

What is the difference between LF17535 and LF16035?

Accepted Answer

LF17535 and LF16035 are two different oil filter part numbers, with the main difference being the engine model and application field they are compatible with.
LF17535: Mainly suitable for Cummins ISF2.8 series engines, commonly used in light trucks, buses and other vehicles. The corresponding Cummins original part numbers include 5399594, 5283170, etc. ‌
LF16035: Mainly suitable for Cummins B5.9 series engines, commonly used in medium-sized trucks, construction machinery, etc. The corresponding Cummins original part numbers include 3908615, 3914395, 3932217, etc. ‌
Although both are Fleetguard brand oil filters, they cannot be interchanged due to differences in engine displacement and design. The selection should be based on the specific model of the vehicle or engine. ‌

Question 2

What is the difference between a fuel filter and a lube filter?

Accepted Answer

Fuel filters and oil filters are both vital for your engine, but they handle completely different jobs. Here's a clear breakdown:

‌Fuel Filter‌

‌What it does‌: Cleans your fuel by removing particles, water, and gunk before it reaches the engine.
‌Where it sits‌: Usually along the fuel line, either near the tank or close to the engine.
‌When to change‌: Every 20,000 to 40,000 miles, or as specified in your owner's manual.
‌Oil Filter‌

‌What it does‌: Traps metal bits, sludge, and dirt from the circulating engine oil.
‌Where it sits‌: Mounted on the engine block, connected to the oil circulation path.
‌When to change‌: Typically every 3,000 to 7,500 miles, often coinciding with oil changes.
‌Key Difference‌: The fuel filter protects the fuel system, while the oil filter safeguards the engine's internal components. Always follow your vehicle's manual for the best maintenance schedule.

Question 3

Is 20 microns good for an oil filter?

Accepted Answer

The filtration accuracy of 20 microns is very useful for oil filters, representing an efficient and practical filtration level that can effectively protect the engine.
In the field of oil filters, 20 microns is a widely recognized and adopted key precision standard. It is not the highest precision, but it can achieve an excellent balance between filtration effect and oil circulation.

Specifically, the value of 20 micron precision is reflected in the following aspects:

Effectively intercepting harmful impurities: The precision components inside modern engines, such as pistons, crankshafts, and valve mechanisms, are extremely sensitive to impurities. A 20 micron filter can efficiently intercept the vast majority of metal debris, dust, and sludge particles that can cause wear, significantly reducing component wear and extending engine life. ‌

Industry mainstream and performance benchmark: For most daily use cars, a filtration accuracy of around 20 microns is the mainstream choice. It can effectively filter out most harmful impurities while ensuring smooth oil circulation and providing stable lubrication for the engine. ‌Many well-known brands of high-performance oil filters, such as Tamfiney, label 20 microns as their core performance indicator, which reflects the recognition of this precision in the market. ‌

Balance performance and reliability: The higher the filtering accuracy, the better. If the precision of the filter element is much higher than 20 microns (such as 5 microns), although it can filter smaller impurities, the pores of the filter material will become smaller, resulting in an increase in the resistance of the oil passing through, which may affect the oil flow rate and cause insufficient lubrication. The precision of 20 microns ensures cleanliness while avoiding this risk. ‌
Therefore, a 20 micron oil filter is not only useful, but also an ideal and recommended choice for ensuring the healthy operation of the engine.
