The SH 4054 oil filter (part number SCT) is one of the most common consumables for Korean Hyundai and Kia vehicles. Unlike previous cartridge models, this filter features a classic spin-on metal design.

It is specifically designed for Alpha, Beta, and Gamma series gasoline engines with displacements of 1.1, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6 liters.

Specifications
Filter Type: Spin-on (full-flow).

Construction: Durable steel housing with anti-corrosion coating.

Filter Element: Multi-layer pleated paper with high dirt-holding capacity.

Valves: Equipped with a bypass valve for supplying oil during cold starts and a check valve to prevent oil from draining into the crankcase when the engine is parked.

Key Benefits
Reliable Cold Start: A check valve keeps oil in the system, eliminating oil starvation and the characteristic knocking noise that occurs in the first seconds after engine start-up.

Tightness: A high-quality rectangular rubber seal ensures a tight fit to the cylinder block, even with sudden temperature changes.

VVT Valve Protection: Fine oil filtration is critical for the proper operation of the variable valve timing system, which is sensitive to contaminants.
