Good morning bitogers. Had this filter as work let me have a 6pack of them since we went to Auto Extra filters. Looks solid and i would use it if I had vehicle that required it

On dome end it says " Leak Tested"

MADE IN CHINA

Looks like a silicone ADBV-would have to be tried out to see, but looks like a viable alternative to the (sometimes shaky) Motorcraft Puro version.

Any clue what the efficiency rating at 20 microns is Adam?

I am not sure of efficiency Johnny

Yeah, I was surprised to see a silicone ADBV myself

Found this on their site. Still looking for efficiency #'s

Thought they were 96% at 20 microns? PG doesn't state a micron number, just the "96%".

Much like the Premium Guard brand, there are two different models.... one basic with nitrile and one with silicone and I'm guessing beefier media.

An exception could be the application this filter needs.... ie...... a group of vehicles that require silicone ADBV.
So is this filter part number a common one, or a rare model number and that's why it remains behind in the Work Shop, after being discontinued by your shop.

Interesting leaf spring design.

Looks much better than the FL820s filters I have been seeing.
