To complement the Ea line of filters, AMSOIL now offers WIX filters, allowing AMSOIL Dealers to offer one-stop shopping for automotive customers. AMSOIL carries over 700 WIX air, oil, fuel, racing and transmission filters for automotive and light truck applications.

Oil Filters
WIX oil filters have a full metal base plate for superior strength at the double seal. They also feature a silicone anti-drainback valve that stays flexible in extreme temperatures. This improves oil flow and keeps oil in the filter to prevent dry starts. The up-front by-pass valve in WIX oil filters keeps oil from washing past dirty media and entering the engine. Their glass-enhanced media offers greater efficiency, capturing more 10- to 12-micron sized particles than other cellulose/synthetic blend medias. WIX oil filters also have a coil steel spring to ensure internal filter parts are sealed properly.

Air Filters
WIX panel element air filters have a linear path through the filter for low airflow restriction, a specially formulated adhesive to form WIX’s exclusive pocket pleat for the filter media and a soft sealing urethane gasket molded in place on the filter element. Radial air filters are constructed of mesh screen on the inside wall diameter for element strength and media pro- tection from backfire. Each round filter is manufactured with heat-resistant plastisol with specially designed crush seals on the top and bottom walls and adhesive seal joining the media ends.

Gasoline Filters
WIX gasoline filters provide unmatched gasoline cleansing performance. They prevent pump wear, injector clogging, premature engine wear and help boost fuel efficiency. WIX gasoline filters offer quick, easy filter replacement, long life and the possibility of extended service intervals. WIX spin-on filters reduce the possibility of improperly installed cover gaskets, and they provide effective, easy draining of excess water on filters equipped with the drain plug.The superior materials, design and construction of WIX gasoline filters provide excellent performance under all types of operating conditions.

Transmission Filters
AMSOIL also offers the full line of industry-leading WIX transmission filters for passenger cars and light trucks. WIX transmission filters provide superior protection for many transmission applications in the auto/light truck market.

Cabin Air Filters
AMSOIL carries the entire WIX line of high-efficiency cabin interior air filters for passenger cars and light trucks.

Racing Filters
AMSOIL is carrying WIX racing filters in addition to filters for more common automotive and light truck applications. WIX has been a part of racing and
NASCAR for many years, both as a sponsor and in the race cars. The company’s long-standing relationship with NASCAR not only demonstrates that WIX filters are high-quality products, but it also shows WIX’s dedication to racing, making it a perfect match for AMSOIL.

WIX is also an air filter contingency sponsor in the NASCAR contingency sponsorship program, awarding cash prizes to WIX-sponsored drivers in the Nextel Cup, Busch Grand National, Craftsman Truck, Winston West and Busch North Series that finish in first, second or third place.
