Product Applications
Donaldson Blue lube filters are made using exclusive advanced synthetic media technologies. Synthetic media technology delivers:

• Extended Service Life
• Greater engine protection to prolong engine and equipment life
• Improved lubricant flow
• Improved cold start performance
• Reduced operating costs
• Can be used beyond OEM drain intervals

Product Description
Donaldson Blue oil filters are made with premium advanced synthetic media technology that results in fibers that have a controlled size, shape and smaller fiber diameter.

The controlled media manufacturing process allows Donaldson Blue oil filters to deliver both higher dirt holding capacity at the same pressure differential and higher efficiency compared to conventional cellulose filters. The synthetic media also has better durability with usage.

Throughout the service life of a cellulose filter, hot oil will degrade the resins that bind the media. The synthetic media technology uses a wire screen backing pleated with the media, resulting in superior strength.

Donaldson Blue oil filters offer extended service intervals, greater engine protection to prolong engine and equipment life, improved lubricant flow, improved cold start performance and lower operating costs.

Donaldson Blue Oil Filters Media with Nanofiber
Donaldson Blue Oil Filters With Nanofiber offers small, consistent synthetic fibers, which trap smaller particles and hold more contaminants, while resulting in lower restriction.

Conventional Cellulose Filter Media
Compare above Nanofiber media with conventional cellulose fiber media found in most oil filters.

Cellulose fibers are inconsistent in size and shape, allowing more contaminants to pass through, resulting in lower capacity while filtration restriction increases with usage / clogging.
