Oil Filters: Classic Frantz Filter Bypass System re-engineered
Purchased in 2014 by Lubrication Specialties Inc. (LSI), Frantz Filter is being re-released with a superior filter media. LSI — the makers of Hot Shot’s Secret products — re-engineered the product’s filter media to better deliver an endless supply of pure, contaminate-free oil.
“Known for using the same ‘powered by science’ approach we take in developing Hot Shot’s Secret products, Frantz Filter was a strategic fit with our line of problem specific solutions,” stated Chris Gabrelcik, president of LSI. “Applying that mentality, we’ve reinvented the Frantz Filter media to now be the most efficient oil filter commercially available.”
While re-engineering, LSI reviewed testing data from Frantz Filter, studied third-party lab reports and conducted internal baseline testing to develop the superior filtering media that uses dense, specially-engineered cellulose. It now filters oil more than 10 times finer than an original equipment manufacturer’s filter, down to two microns.
The Frantz Filter Co. was established in 1953 by John Frantz, and became a mainstay product and process for cleaning automotive oil worldwide. This high level of innovation continues as LSI pursues development of two additional filter media types designed for use in various applications.
The Frantz Oil Bypass Filter System can be used with any diesel or gas engine. Custom instillation kits along with a universal instillation kit are available. Although geared toward cars and small to medium trucks, Frantz Filter also handles larger filters designed for heavy equipment. For larger applications such as construction equipment and semis, contact Frantz Filter diesel experts for application-specific information.
