I assume you are talking oil filters:

LF3972 for the standard replacment.

LF16035 for the STRATAPORE.

Good question. I didn't know either. I got this directy from Cummins:

Most filters look the same on the outside. It's what's inside that counts. Cummins Filtration exclusively designed StrataPore™ synthetic media in our Media Center for optimum performance and longer life. Unlike cellulose and microglass media, StrataPore™ is multi-layered, with an optimum number of layers for the desired level of particle removal.

StrataPore's™ benefits are:
•Strength and durability
•Less compromise of efficiency and life due to multi-layering
•Organic contaminant tolerance
•Lower filter restriction
Stronger and More Durable Filter Media
Our unique meltblown manufacturing process produces layers composed of continuous, high-strength polymeric fiber, which results in a stronger, more durable bond that maintains media strength.

ESI Compatibility
The ability to optimize individual sheets for desired particle-size removal provides StrataPore™ with increased total media filtration efficiency--particularly effective in extended service environments (ESI).

StrataPore™ offers this capability without sacrificing inorganic contaminant removal. With traditional media, trade offs are made between high efficiency and high capacity. StrataPore™ allows customers to extend service intervals without compromise.

Lower Filter Restriction: Higher Performance
Its unique layering capabilities also allow StrataPore™ to provide nearly 50% reduction of filter restriction during cold start. With traditional media, pore size must be reduced, increasing the pressure required to force oil through the media. The smaller range in StrataPore™ media results in more repeatable, controllable filtration performance.

Award Winning Performance
StrataPore™ has been recognized throughout the filtration industry as a superior innovation, including receipt of an award from the American Filtration Society for its technologically advanced design.

The Stratapore has synthetic filter media - just filters better, longer and with more efficiency.
