Abstract
A filter assembly includes a housing, a filter element, and an end cap. The housing includes an interior surface, an exterior surface, and a protrusion. The interior surface defines an interior volume. The exterior surface is opposite the interior surface. The protrusion extends from the exterior surface. The filter element is configured to be disposed at least partially in the interior volume of the housing. The end cap includes an axially-extending outer rim defining a slot configured to receive the protrusion to inhibit rotation of the end cap relative to the housing.
