EE 368 Fuel Filter

EE-368 High-Efficiency Oil Filter (Replaces CAT 5I-7950)

Maximize the protection of your heavy-duty machinery with the EE-368 Oil Filter. Specifically designed to replace the Caterpillar 5I-7950, this "Advanced Efficiency" spin-on filter is engineered to provide superior filtration for high-pressure lubrication systems.

Unlike standard filters, the EE-368 features a dual-flow design that ensures consistent oil delivery while capturing microscopic contaminants that cause engine wear. It is the ideal choice for operators of CAT excavators and industrial engines who require OEM-level reliability in demanding environments.

Key Performance Features:

• Advanced Efficiency Media: Specifically designed to trap and hold more contaminants, extending the life of your engine’s internal components.

• Dual-Flow Technology: Provides both full-flow and bypass filtration in a single canister for maximum oil cleanliness.

• Heavy-Duty Canister: Built with a reinforced steel housing to withstand extreme pressure spikes and high-vibration conditions typical of construction sites.

• Precision Seal: High-quality rubber gasket ensures a leak-proof fit even under high thermal expansion.
