EE 381 Oil Filter

EE-381 High-Efficiency Oil Filter

Keep your engine running at peak performance with the EE-381 Oil Filter. Specifically engineered for modern diesel and gasoline engines, this spin-on filter provides superior protection by trapping microscopic contaminants and ensuring a steady flow of clean oil to critical engine components.

Designed to be a high-quality alternative to the Hyundai/Kia 26300-42010, the EE-381 is built with advanced filtration media that offers exceptional durability even under high-pressure conditions.

Key Features:

  • Precision Filtration: Captures dust, metal particles, and carbon deposits to prevent engine wear.

  • Anti-Drainback Valve: Prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, ensuring immediate lubrication upon startup.

  • Heavy-Duty Housing: Reinforced steel canister resists pressure surges and external damage.

  • Exact Fit: Engineered to match OEM thread specifications ($M26 \times 1.5$) for a leak-free seal.
