This document is an exploded-view diagram of an "Ea" brand spin-on oil filter, showing the filter disassembled into its individual components with labeled callouts describing each part's function. Nine components are identified: the filter housing (offering superior strength and pressure-fatigue performance), an end-cap containing the by-pass valve (whose position varies per OEM requirements), a louvered center tube inside the element (allowing more flow area and eliminating media wear during pleat movement), stamped end caps with plastisol sealant into which the media is deeply embedded, a heavy-duty baseplate with a fully tucked double seam, a steel spring that securely holds components in place, wire-backed full synthetic filter media (offering high efficiency and longevity), a silicone anti-drainback valve that stays flexible in extreme temperatures, and a long-life HNBR gasket that stays flexible and tightly sealed. A reader can learn the internal construction of this style of oil filter, the names of each internal component, and the manufacturer's stated benefits of each design feature. The document contains no vehicle applications, part numbers, dimensions, or dates; it is a general marketing/reference illustration of filter construction rather than a vehicle-specific service document.
