In many of the race car and motorcycle sanctioning bodies they allow a worm-type (hose) clamp to be used. The requirement was to tighten the hose clamp and drill the head and use that to wire the filter. this would keep both items tight.
How do you go about wire tying an automotive oil filter? Are there
filters available that can be wire tied? My remote oil filter mount is
3/4-16 thread size and is designed for the Fram PH8A type filter. I
notice that aircraft filters have a male and not female fitting. I
could remove the male fitting from my mount, but I don't think the
aluminum threads would hold up well if they were subjected to frequent
removal/install.
What is a best practices solution?
