Aircraft oil filters – any made of sintered bronze balls for filtering? What other substances used to filter?

I was reading a Popular Mechanix magazine from the 1960′s, and a guy was claiming that the micro-welded bronze ball type of oil filter in airplanes of the day would allow an automobile engine to run 200k or more miles, that it filtered the tiny 2-4 micron-sized particles that kill most automobile engines. Any truth to that, and what type of filter material is used in aircraft engines now? Anyone tried to run an aircraft oil filter in an automobile?

You can “over filter” oil. This was a problem with the toilet roll filters of the seventies. These were only used in the automotive industry.
The filters used in large radial engines (Wright and P&W) were made up of series of disc shaped screens separated by corrugated spacers. These filters can be dismantled for cleaning.
The smaller engines fitted to bug smashers use a filter similar to those uesd in a car.
Gas turbine engines use gause type filters that can be cleaned and reused.
There is no reason why you couldnt use an aircraft filter in your car if you fabricate an adaptor to suit the car’s engine.
