Fram Extra Guard Oil Filters

FRAM Extra Guard has a multi-layer glass fiber filter media. It's thicker and denser than conventional media, providing a maze to trap contaminants more effectively.

Before oil enters the engine lubrication system, it passes through the oil filter. The filter's job is to remove potentially engine-damaging dirt particles.

To provide the best engine protection, the maximum amount of dirt should be removed the first time the dirt passes through the filter before it reaches the engine.

The Society of Automotive Engineers run a test called the "Single Pass Efficiency Test" (SPE) to measure a filter's ability to provide engine protection. The SPE Test is one of the industry standards for evaluating and comparing oil filter performance, and measure a filter's ability to remove dirt the first time through.

The FRAM Extra Guard filter performs at an unprecedented 96.2% efficiency in the single-pass efficiency tests. The average efficiency rating for other leading brands is only 74.6%.

And like the FRAM Tough Guard oil filter, Extra Guard features our advanced synthetic glass and cellulose media, which is a combination of synthetic glass and cellulose uniquely formulated for top-rated efficiency for the life of the filter.
