Not sure if they're that tight; I think more along the lines of 5 micron nominal/20 micron absolute. Nevertheless, Baldwin brand filters are some of the better, non-OEM brand filters one can find.

Full disclosure, I work for the company I linked to above. Maye should have mentioned above but I was in a hurry.

The time of My own Project the CAT 1R-0750 Fuel Filter was advartised as 2 absolute microns but about a year or so ago there is a change. The claim is that the tests have trouble measuring that low.

Even if the CAT Fuel Filter is not a 2 absolute Micron Filter it has better filtration than the Stock 10 nominal micron Filter and it is also about 2.5 times larger of a filter.
