PowerLong USA to become a sponsor of USTCC

December 16, 2004 - San Francisco, CA:  PowerLong USA is pleased to announce that they are the latest proud sponsor of the United States Touring Car Championship Series. PowerLong USA is also a sponsor of NASA’s Northern and Southern California Honda Challenge series and a sponsor of USTCC Member, Team SpeedyMotorsports. Drivers Gordon Pun (Team Manager/Coordinator), William Dockery Jr., and Tom Milburn are enthusiastic, highly skilled, dedicated veterans of the race circuit.

The innovative PowerLong filters are the first and only Sus-Mesh oil filters in the world with approved patents in many countries. PowerLong oil filters are manufactured according to the requirements set forth under QS 9000 and ISO 9001.

PowerLong filters are the next generation of oil filters because the inside element of the filter, the filtration system, is not made of paper. Instead, it’s made from stainless steel mesh. There are many benefits of steel over paper. The openings in the Sus-Mesh are consistent and thereby producing an unwavering filtration pore. Because of the uniform size of the pores in a PowerLong filter, you will have consistent pressure of oil and without worries about a collapsed or ruptured filter element or inconsistencies of pore size. The strength of paper diminishes in time, and when paper comes in contact with any liquid and under pressure, it loses strength and can rupture. This is not the case with stainless steel. PowerLong filters have superior filtration efficiency because most of the oil goes into the filtration area rather than going through the by-pass valve.

The first noticeable benefit upon installing a PowerLong filter is improved acceleration along with a smoother running engine. The engine does not have to work as hard to pump the oil through since there is less resistance in the steel mesh (low differential pressure between the oil that enters and exits the filter). Also, since there is a higher oil flow, there is less friction on the internal engine parts, less heat is generated and less oil is consumed. The moving parts receive more lubrication, thus work more efficiently and powerfully. A smoother running engine and instant response in acceleration will lead to more economical fuel consumption. (Results may vary depending on vehicle and driving conditions.)
