What Is The Diameter And Height Of An Exterior Canister For A Car Oil Filter

Posted in Oil Filters | Asked on Jun 2, 2010

Just what the question askes above.
What is an estimate of the diameter and height of an exterior canister for an automobile oil filter?

Thanks in advance!
Thanks Doug. I just wanted a rough range for a homework assignment where I have to design the tooling for deep-drawing the exterior canisters and had no clue the sizes :-)
