Wettal Oil Filter 8-Pack 12-050-01-S Replacement Canister for Lawn Mowers & Generators, Metal Shell & Synthetic Media

These Wettal oil filters are designed as direct-fit replacements for a wide range of lawn mower, generator, and tractor engines that accept the 12-050-01 family of part numbers. Sold as a bundle of eight, they make routine maintenance simple, economical, and fast. Each unit uses a reinforced metal shell, a rubber sealing gasket, and multi-layer synthetic media to catch contaminants before they circulate through bearings and other moving parts.

Which engines and models will these filters fit?

These Wettal filters match the dimensions and thread specifications common to the 12-050-01 series and its variants, so they fit many popular residential and light-commercial engines. Before ordering, confirm your engine’s OEM part number or measure the old filter to ensure compatibility.

• Compatible numbers: 12-050-01, 12-050-01-S, 12-050-01-S1, 12-050-08, KH-12-050-01-S1 and equivalents.
• Works with many Cub Cadet/YTH series and engine families such as CH, CV, KT and SV lines.
• Commonly used on lawn tractors, walk-behind mowers, small generators, and compact tractors.

How do these filters balance durability and filtration performance?

The Wettal design focuses on a heavy-gauge metal canister and a pleated synthetic element. The metal casing resists dents and deformation under pressure while the synthetic media delivers a large surface area for trapping fine particles without restricting oil flow.

• Thick metal housing resists impact and high-temperature distortion.
• Uniform pleats increase filtration surface to capture more contaminants.
• Rubber gasket ensures a tight seal to minimize leaks during operation.

Is installation difficult and what tools are needed?

Installation is straightforward and intended for DIY maintenance between professional services. The filter screws on like most cartridge-style oil filters and can be installed by hand or with a standard oil filter wrench for stubborn units.

• Screw-on installation — tighten until the washer contacts base, then snug one-quarter to one-half turn.
• Basic tools: oil filter wrench (optional), drain pan, and gloves recommended.
• Replacement can be completed in minutes during a normal oil change procedure.

What are the physical specs and what’s included in the pack?

Each shipment contains eight identical black oil filters sized for engines that accept the 12-050-01 family. The pack is intended to cover multiple service intervals or to outfit several machines at once.

• Quantity: 8 filters per pack.
• Dimensions: approximately 2-5/8 inches in height and 3 inches outer diameter.
• Includes rubber sealing ring on each filter for a reliable seal.

Who is this for? The Wettal 8-pack is aimed at homeowners, landscapers, and small-farm operators who service multiple machines or perform frequent oil changes. It's also a practical choice for technicians stocking parts for common small-engine repairs. If you maintain one or more mowers, compact tractors, or portable generators that list 12-050-01 variants as compatible, this bundle reduces downtime and provides spare filters for consecutive maintenance cycles.
