Product Overview
Tempest AA48108-2 Spin-EZ Oil Filter. Tempests are patent-pending non-sticking SPIN EZ aircraft engine oil filters. Tempests SPIN EZ filters are designed to come off easily. Heat, time, and pressure can extrude oil, grease, DC4 compound, or similar liquid lubricants from between a filter's rubber seal and the filter mount pad - leaving the filter seemingly bonded to the engine's mount pad - and making it nearly impossible to remove. Tempests proprietary SPIN EZ adhered solid seal lubricant stays where it’s supposed to - between the seal and the mount pad's surface. SPIN EZ solid lubricant won’t extrude or squirt out from under the seal. It prevents the bond-forming environment that makes legacy filters stick.
Used as the engine oil filter.
