Built for Heavy-Duty Commercial Work
This filter is specifically designed for the Doppstadt AK430 shredder equipped with the Mercedes-Benz OM501LA diesel engine. These machines handle everything from yard waste and construction debris to industrial recycling operations. When you're processing tons of material per hour, that engine needs a steady supply of clean fuel to maintain power and efficiency through long operating days.
Quality That Holds Up
Baldwin has been protecting engines for decades with quality filtration media that captures contaminants while maintaining proper fuel flow. The robust construction handles the constant vibration and heat cycles that come with commercial shredding work, while the reliable seal prevents fuel leaks that could create safety issues on the job site.
Installation Notes
This is a direct spin-on replacement that takes just minutes to change out. Apply a thin coat of clean diesel to the gasket before installation, then hand-tighten until the gasket contacts the mounting surface, plus an additional 3/4 turn. Keep a spare on hand during busy seasons when you're running long hours and can't afford unexpected downtime.
