Oil Filter Sandwich Plates

An oil filter sandwich plate is installed between the engine block and the oil filter, allowing additional hose connections for an external oil cooler.

A thermostatic oil sandwich plate regulates oil temperature by directing oil flow to an external oil cooler only when it reaches optimal operating temperatures, preventing overcooling in colder conditions.

• Thermostatic sandwich plates regulate oil flow based on temperature, preventing oil from being overcooled.
• Non-thermostatic oil sandwich plates provide a constant oil flow to an external cooler, regardless of temperature.

An oil sandwich plate with thermostat helps maintain optimal oil temperatures by only sending oil to an external cooler when needed, reducing warm-up times and improving engine efficiency.

A thermostatic oil cooler sandwich plate is ideal for vehicles that operate in varying conditions, ensuring that oil reaches optimal temperatures before being cooled, which helps maintain proper lubrication and engine longevity.

A right-angle thermostatic oil sandwich plate is designed for installations where space is limited, providing better clearance while still regulating oil flow based on temperature.

A multi-angle thermostatic oil sandwich plate offers adjustable fittings, allowing for flexible hose routing. The hose fittings can be configured to exit straight or at a 45-degree angle. The other two ports can be used for sensors or remain blanked off (they come blanked as standard).

All thermostatic sandwich plates come with three temperature options, allowing for customisation based on climate and usage:

• 82°C (180°F) – Ideal for hot climates and extreme racing.
• 92°C (198°F) – Suitable for mixed climates and fast road/track use.
• 102°C (216°F) – Best for cold climates.

The thermostatic elements can be swapped out at a later date if needed.

All sandwich plates you can choose the following oil filter threads:

• M20 x 1.5 – Standard for many European and Japanese engines.
• 3/4"-16 UNF – Compatible with various American and British engines.

All sandwich plates allow for the addition of AN8, AN10, or AN12 adapters to suit your oil cooler setup.

Yes, all our oil filter sandwich plates are fully serviceable, ensuring long-term reliability and ease of maintenance.

An oil filter sandwich plate spacer increases the clearance between the oil filter and the engine block, which is useful in tight engine bays or when additional adapters are required. Ours come with dual 1/8" NPT sensor ports, really handy when you have both oil pressure and oil temperature sensors to install.
