Default Oil Filters

So I swear the last motor blew from a filter disintegrating and clogging my pump pick up. My issue didn't seem to be how much filtering it did as much as it dissolving but I see that some are listed by the microns size they will filter. Yeah, I know everybody said don't use those cheap fram and Bosch filters but I learn the hard way. Anyway I've seen Napa Gold and Wix recommended. There are quite a few different Wix that Summit lists.

What micron size would offer adequate protection? 21 microns sound ok? I know there are other issues like by-pass and drain back to consider too.
