Had this filter laying around in the garage for about a year, used to be for my neighbor's Nissan when I used to help do oil changes in exchanges of favor, such as getting a free haircut. Its been a year since I moved. I just got my oil filter cutter today and decided this is the first thing to test it against which worked well, a clean cut and no mess.
Some notes: Gasket and Anti-drainback valve are nitrile rubber (has a rubbery smell to it but also soft to touch). Media looks like classic cellulose blend, very tough to tear by hand, feels like hard cardboard like surface. Glue is some sort of cream colored plastisol, also very hard on the durometer feeling, you can slightly deform it pushing it hard in with a screwdriver or pin. The whole filter element endcap to endcap length is 2 inches.
Overall not a bad filter that's made in China. Looks good for a 5K mile run.
