Description
The Mishimoto -10AN In-Line Pre-Filter (MMOC-PF-10) is a compact, dual-stage fluid filtration unit built to protect transmission, differential, and engine oil pump systems from contaminants before they reach critical components. Centered on a 150-micron sintered bronze filter element and an integrated rare-earth magnet, this -10AN unit belongs to Mishimoto’s -AN pre-filter lineup, which is offered in sizes from -6AN to -12AN to suit a wide variety of fluid-line applications.
This in-line pre-filter adds an extra filtration stage designed to extend the life of your fluid pump and its associated components by capturing both particulate and metallic debris from lubricating fluid. The 150-micron sintered bronze filter can be removed and cleaned for long-term reuse, while the integrated rare-earth magnet continuously pulls ferrous particles out of the fluid stream before they can reach pump internals. Mishimoto engineered the unit for minimal pressure drop, so transmission, differential, or turbocharger systems keep ample fluid flow even with the added filtration stage, and its compact size means it can be tucked into tight engine bays without a fight. CNC-machined end-plates with male -AN fittings and a durable, corrosion-resistant anodized finish round out a design meant to work seamlessly with Mishimoto -AN lines and fittings.
Vehicle Applications
Rather than fitting a single make or model, the Mishimoto -10AN In-Line Pre-Filter is a universal, AN-fitting-based component designed to install into any transmission, differential, or engine oil pump fluid line using -10AN male AN flare connections. Because the pre-filter series is offered across -6AN to -12AN sizing, it can be matched to the specific AN fitting size already used in a vehicle’s fluid system, making it a flexible addition for builders and technicians working with Mishimoto -AN plumbing.
