One popular WIX filter states it has the ability of removing particles down to about 21 microns in size. One micron equals a millionth of a meter or 0.000039 inch. By comparison, a human hair is about 60 microns in diameter !
Rhetorical question.... how often do we change our filters. At that point is there is a danger that the oil filter might become plugged with particles under 21 microns.
