TL;DR No independent SAE J1858 multi-pass test data exists for the M1-110A. The 99% efficiency claim cites ExxonMobil's internal SAE HS-806 test only, and BITOG cut-open threads for the A-suffix production run document uneven pleat spacing across multiple units.
Spin-on canister filter with synthetic fiber blend media and a 20,000-mile / 1-year manufacturer-warranted service rating. The 99% at 30-micron efficiency figure cites ExxonMobil's internal SAE HS-806 test; no independent SAE J1858 beta-ratio data has been published. BITOG cut-open threads for the A-suffix production run document uneven pleat spacing in multiple units, a QC finding not reported in earlier M1-110 cut-opens. Manufacturer bullets describe an anti-drain-back valve, with the bypass opening threshold not independently disclosed. The M20×1.50 thread is commonly cross-referenced to many Asian and domestic applications, so verify fitment against your owner's manual before installing.
Right pick for full-synthetic extended-drain use on a compatible platform: a 20,000-mile manufacturer warranty, an anti-drain-back valve, and a thread class used across many common applications. Skip if published independent SAE J1858 filtration data is a requirement; none exists for the M1-110A. A full-synthetic extended-drain filter with documented multi-pass test data is the correct alternative for owners who need that validation.
Steel canister with synthetic filter media, with no chemical exposure pathway from the filter itself. Every spent filter contains residual motor oil, a hazardous waste in most US jurisdictions; drained filters are accepted at most automotive parts stores for recycling. The 20,000-mile service rating reduces annual filter consumption versus standard-drain alternatives.
The M1-110A uses an M20×1.50 thread that third-party parts catalogs commonly cross-reference to a wide range of Asian and domestic vehicles. CCT has not independently verified a specific vehicle list, so always confirm fitment using your vehicle's year, make, model, and engine size in Mobil 1's application guide or the retailer's parts finder before installation.
No independent SAE J1858 multi-pass beta-ratio data has been published for the M1-110A. The 99% at 30 microns claim is based on ExxonMobil's internal SAE HS-806 test procedure, not a third-party certified test. For comparison, the SAE J1858 beta ratio of β15(c) ≥ 200, the standard used to verify premium filter efficiency, has not been publicly documented for this filter.
Mobil 1 rates the M1-110A for up to 20,000 miles or 1 year, whichever comes first, when used as directed with Mobil 1 Extended Performance synthetic oil. The manufacturer backs this with a limited warranty. Community long-drain cut-open data on BITOG corroborates extended-interval use at 10,000 miles.
Yes. The M1-110A includes an anti-drain-back valve designed to prevent oil from draining back into the oil pan during shutdown, protecting against dry starts on cold start. Its presence is stated in manufacturer feature bullets; the valve material is inferred to be nitrile from manufacturer materials and legacy BITOG cut-opens rather than confirmed for the A-suffix specifically. BITOG cut-open reviews note the valve is present, though some A-suffix production units show inconsistent pleat spacing.
Yes, the M1-110A is compatible with all oil types including conventional, semi-synthetic, and full-synthetic motor oil. However, using it with conventional oil significantly shortens its effective service life: the 20,000-mile rating is intended for full-synthetic extended-drain use. With conventional oil, standard service intervals (typically 3,000 to 5,000 miles) apply.
