When you’re running heavy equipment through dusty fields, construction sites, or hauling loads down dirt roads, your engine is fighting a constant battle against contamination. This outer air filter element is your engine’s first line of defense against the dust, chaff, and debris that can destroy bearings, cylinders, and rings in surprisingly short order. A clogged or damaged filter means dirty air gets into your engine, and that’s a fast track to expensive repairs you don’t need.
What You’re Getting
- Robust filter media and construction designed to handle vibration, temperature swings, and the constant dirt loading that comes with outdoor work
- Pleated design gives you maximum filtering surface in a compact package for better dirt-holding capacity
- Baldwin quality that’s built to OEM specifications—you’re getting the same filtration performance as the original
- 16 5/16 inch length with 7 15/16 inch outer diameter for proper fit and seal
Built for Real Farm and Construction Work
This versatile filter works across multiple equipment brands including Mercedes-Benz trucks, John Deere, Case, Komatsu, and many others. Whether you’re combining dusty grain fields, running a dozer through sandy soil, or operating a loader in a gravel pit, this filter handles the conditions that come with putting equipment to work in demanding environments. From highway trucks to heavy construction equipment, this filter protects engines that need to run strong day after day.
Made to Last
Farm and construction equipment operate in conditions that would choke passenger car filters in minutes. Baldwin has been making filters for decades, and they know what it takes to survive in harsh conditions. The pleated media holds its shape even when loaded with dirt, and the seals stay flexible through temperature swings and vibration.
Installation Notes
This is the outer element in a two-stage air filtration system—always replace both outer and inner elements together during service. Check your air intake piping and clamps while you’ve got the housing open, since even small leaks let unfiltered air bypass your expensive filtration entirely. Keep spare filters on hand during dusty seasons when you might need to service them more frequently than normal intervals.
