Melling Performance 155S - GM Oil Pump Screen OEM

Description

A new Melling stock-replacement engine oil pick-up tube and screen assembly provides clean, dependable lubrication flow while protecting your oil pump and critical engine bearings from circulating debris. Contaminants entering the oil supply via normal engine wear, combustion deposits, or extended service intervals can lodge in oil passages or stick the pump's pressure relief valve, causing rapid pressure loss and catastrophic engine damage. Made in the USA to rigid production and material standards, Melling pick-up assemblies feature precision-formed tubes and fine-mesh filtration screens designed to match OEM oil pan clearances and maintain uninhibited oil delivery. Installing a brand-new Melling pick-up screen assembly ensures optimal suction geometry, reliable pressure relief function, and peace of mind on every new pump installation or engine overhaul.

Features & Technical Highlights:

• Critical Oil Pump & Bearing Protection: Shields the oil pump gerotor/gears and pressure relief valve spring from ingested wear metal, debris, and sludge deposits.
• Direct OEM Replacement: Formed to factory dimensions to ensure proper pan-to-pickup floor clearance and uninhibited suction under all operating angles.
• Engineered Quality Standards: Precision-manufactured from durable materials to resist fatigue, vibration cracking, and flow cavitation.
• Essential Installation Practice: Melling recommends installing a brand-new pick-up tube and screen assembly with every new oil pump installation to protect warranty coverage and prevent pre-existing contaminants from entering the new pump.
• Made in the USA: Designed, engineered, and assembled domestically to meet or exceed original equipment performance.
