Yanmar Genuine Oil Filters

Yanmar genuine oil filters purify lubricating oil into clean engine oil, and are part of the full range of Yanmar Genuine Parts engineered specifically for your equipment. Clean oil is vital for optimum engine performance, cooling and lubrication. Dirty oil causes unwanted wear, machine damage and less productivity.

Yanmar Genuine Oil filter part number #148620-35400

Yanmar’s oil filters efficiently filter coarse and fine particles from the oil, ensuring your Yanmar engine always operates with an optimal oil supply, whether cold-starting, frequently restarting, or operating at high load. Their high dirt capacity and optimal filtration performance provide superior protection, reduce maintenance costs, and boost productivity throughout the engine’s life.

For complete engine protection, pair your oil filter with genuine Engine Oils & Coolant and check your Air Filter and Fuel Filter on the same service interval.

Yanmar Genuine Oil Filter vs. Non-Genuine Comparison

Less Clogging. More Uptime.

In comparative bench testing, two non-genuine oil filter samples showed a sharp rise in pressure loss after approximately 20–30 hours of use, while the genuine Yanmar filter maintained stable, low pressure loss for over 40 hours under the same test conditions. The genuine filter’s filtration area measured 0.163 m², around 48–51% larger than the non-genuine samples tested (0.110 m² and 0.108 m²).

A larger filtration area and more stable pressure loss over time are generally associated with longer service intervals and fewer unplanned stops. For reliable performance, Yanmar recommends genuine oil filters.

Chart comparing filtration efficiency over time: genuine Yanmar oil filter reaching 55-72% vs non-genuine filters at 38-50% over a shorter test period

Cleaner Oil. Longer Protection.

In comparative bench testing, the genuine Yanmar filter achieved 55–72% filtration efficiency over 10-60 hours of elapsed time, consistently higher than the two imitation samples, which measured 38–42% and 48–50% over shorter test durations (up to 25–30 hours).

Higher, more consistent filtration efficiency over time is generally associated with cleaner oil, reduced component wear, and longer service intervals. For reliable performance, Yanmar recommends genuine oil filters.

Don’t settle for “non-genuine” oil filters – demand the original and complete the job with a genuine Filter Kit. Find your authorised Yanmar dealer today.

What makes Yanmar Genuine oil filters different?

Genuine Yanmar filters use high-quality filter media and fibres explicitly designed for Yanmar engines, ensuring accurate particle capture and stable performance throughout the service interval.

How does filtration efficiency affect engine life?

Higher filtration efficiency keeps oil cleaner for longer, reducing wear on bearings, pistons, and other critical components. Poor filtration accelerates engine wear and increases the risk of failure

How do Genuine oil filters reduce the total cost of ownership?

By lasting longer, protecting engine components, and reducing unplanned service stops, Yanmar oil filters help lower maintenance costs and maximise machine uptime.

Can non-genuine filters cause engine damage?

Yes. Inaccurate filtration can allow harmful particles to circulate in the engine, leading to wear, corrosion, and, in severe cases, engine failure.

Why do imitation oil filters need to be replaced more often?

Imitation filters typically have lower dirt-holding capacity and clog faster. As pressure loss rises, oil flow is restricted, forcing earlier replacement and increasing downtime.
