Its non-stick gaskets make oil filter inspection and maintenance a breeze. Enjoy the Tempest airplane oil filter to improve your aircrafts oil quality during every flight, reducing harmful debris build-up in your engine. Tempest oil filters are affordable and easy-to-install, with incredible benefits that are second-to-none.

The "Dash II" is 5/16" shorter than competitive filters, making it the shortest oil filter on the market.

An internal magnet, designed to attract fine steel particles to small to be caught by the filter media that can be harmful to the engine, effectively increases the filtration performance of the filter.
Improved Nut Welds Nut welds are so strong that the can will distort without breaking the welds! During production testing nuts are actually ripped away from the can the base metal must fail, the welds must not (see photo). Using Tempest Original filters means no more frustration with installation nuts falling off.
