the oem filter (revision AB, italian made) is made of synthetic fiber and rated 10 microns. all the aftermarket ones I saw are paper type (cellulose) and never come better than 25-30.
I usually replace with oem after questionable fuel at remote places after a trip, and oem never failed me so far.

Most, if not all diesels that are operated in extreme conditions ~ scrapers, graders, dozers, tractors etc have twin filters. Normally the same filter. When you change, you place the secondary element in the place of the primary & place a new secondary element in. Unless there is evidence that contamination like water has got passed the primary & then you replace both elements. Many of us have been doing this for decades.
