How cheap oil filters are made.

I saw this one pop up on YouTube, unbelievable.
I think OSHA would have some serious issues if this was going on in the U.S..

Cheap oil filters !
If they hand made oil filters like that here it would probably cost $100 each and guys would think they had the world by the nuts with these high end made by hand filters.

Its kind of impressive what people can do with some hand tools and some simple machinery. I guess for a fuel filter with a very low flow rate and a low pressure differential I guess just overlapping the ends of the filter pleats is probably all you need. Gooping the glue by hand was probably the worst part, health wise and quality.

I wouldn’t bet.

The finished product is marked Fuel Filter, I imagine they are used to filter the chunks from Diesel fuel
