Tempest AA48110-2 Oil Filter

Tempest AA48110-2 Aircraft Oil Filter

The Tempest AA48110-2 oil filter is a FAA-PMA approved spin-on filter engineered for piston aircraft engines requiring this configuration. Manufactured by Tempest Plus, the AA48110-2 delivers reliable filtration performance in general aviation applications.

Tempest oil filters use aviation-specific filter media designed to capture contaminants generated during engine operation. The AA48110-2 incorporates an internal magnet that helps trap ferrous metal particles circulating within the lubrication system, providing an added inspection advantage during oil changes.

The high-strength steel canister construction supports durability under normal operating pressures. When replaced at recommended oil change intervals (typically 25–50 hours, per engine manufacturer guidance), the Tempest AA48110-2 helps maintain oil cleanliness and engine longevity.

Key Features & Benefits

• FAA-PMA approved aircraft oil filter

• Spin-on design

• High-strength steel housing

• Aviation-specific filtration media

• Designed for routine GA oil change intervals

• Manufactured by Tempest Plus

Tempest SPIN EZ™ Non-Stick Design

Tempest SPIN EZ™ oil filters incorporate a proprietary solid gasket lubricant designed to reduce filter sticking during removal. Unlike traditional liquid lubricants or DC-4 compounds that may extrude under heat and pressure, the adhered solid lubricant remains between the gasket and mount pad surface.

This design helps minimize bonding between the filter seal and the engine mount pad, simplifying removal at scheduled oil change intervals.
