These machined billet aluminum bypass plates are needed when using a remote
oil filter. O-rings are captured in the plate for a tight seal against the
block surface, and are installed under bolt heads for leak-free
performance. Drilled and tapped to accept 1/2" NPT fittings.
Includes all mounting hardware.
When a marine engine is installed in the bilge of a boat there is little or
no access to the bottom of the engine therefore a remote mounted oil filter is
required. An oil filter block off adapter must be bolted on the original
oil filter location to accomplish this. These block off adapters are
constructed of 6061-T6 billet aluminum and then beautifully anodized for
superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments. They are completely
O-ringed on the sealing surfaces to eliminate oil leaks, copper sealing washers
are NOT used under the mounting bolt heads.
