Abstract
An improved serviceable oil filter assembly is provided. The oil filter assembly includes a first end cap, a second end cap, a retainer element, and a cylindrical filter element. The first end cap defines a dirty oil inlet and a clean oil outlet. The second end cap includes a threaded collar for attachment to a threaded sidewall of the first endcap. The retainer element secures the cylindrical filter element within an interior volume of the oil filter assembly. The cylindrical filter element functions in combination with the retainer element to divide the interior volume of the serviceable oil filter assembly into a dirty oil chamber in fluid communication with the dirty oil inlet and a clean oil chamber in fluid communication with the clean oil outlet.
