Description
When you're hauling heavy loads down the highway or working long shifts, water contamination in your diesel fuel is one of the fastest ways to turn a profitable day into an expensive breakdown. This Baldwin fuel water separator filter is your first line of defense against the moisture and debris that can destroy expensive injection systems in modern trucks. Whether you're dealing with condensation from temperature swings or contaminated fuel deliveries, this filter removes both water and particles before they reach your engine.
What You're Getting
- 8 9/32 inch length with 4 1/4 inch diameter for maximum filtration capacity
- Integral post seal and sensor port with 1/2-20 thread for water-in-fuel monitoring systems
- 1-14 thread size fits standard Racor housings and mounting systems
- Includes both inner and outer gaskets for proper sealing
- Built-in sensor port can be plugged with OP8752 if not needed
Built for Highway and Commercial Work
This filter works across Ford, Freightliner, International, Sterling, and Western Star trucks, along with Mercedes-Benz diesel engines. Whether you're running over-the-road freight, local delivery, or commercial construction work, clean fuel is critical for reliable operation when schedules matter and downtime costs money.
Made to Last
Baldwin has been making filters for decades, handling everything from farm equipment to highway trucks. The robust construction stands up to the vibration and pressure pulses of diesel fuel systems, while the advanced filtration media traps water and contaminants without restricting fuel flow to your high-pressure injection system.
Installation Notes
This spins on just like a standard fuel filter - remove the old one and install the new filter with proper torque on the gasket seal. If your truck has a water-in-fuel sensor, the 1/2-20 sensor port thread is ready to go. For trucks without sensors, use the OP8752 plug to seal the port. Always prime the fuel system after installation to prevent air pockets that cause rough running.
