  • Application-specific media: premium media matched to the application, including wire-backed synthetic, enhanced cellulose, and wire mesh.
  • Durable build: high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, center tubes, and end caps.

  • OEM service intervals: recommended for OEM power steering filter change intervals.

If a clogged or worn power steering filter is behind reduced steering assist or contaminated fluid, this WIX cartridge is the direct-fit replacement to help restore clean filtration.
