Description
When you're running heavy equipment in dusty fields or on construction sites, fuel contamination isn't just a nuisance—it's a fast track to expensive injection pump repairs. Water, dirt, and debris love to find their way into fuel tanks, especially when you're dealing with fuel deliveries that might not be the cleanest. This Baldwin fuel water separator filter catches contaminants before they can cause costly damage, keeping your machine running smooth when there's work to do.
What You're Getting
- Dual-stage filtration that separates water while trapping dirt and debris particles
- Integral post seal design prevents fuel leaks around the mounting threads
- Robust 3 11/16 inch diameter housing with 5 11/16 inch length for ample filtration capacity
- Compatible with FB46185 base for flexible mounting options
- 1-14 thread size for secure installation on Dresser, Hough, and International equipment
Built for Heavy-Duty Work
This filter is engineered for the demanding conditions your Dresser, Hough, and International machines face every day. Whether you're running an excavator on a job site, operating a loader around the farm, or running road equipment, clean fuel is critical for keeping diesel engines running at peak performance in dusty, demanding conditions. These machines put in long hours under tough conditions where fuel quality can make the difference between productive work and costly downtime.
Quality That Holds Up
Baldwin has been making filters for heavy equipment since before hydraulics were common, and they understand what farm and construction work demands. The filter media is designed to handle the water separation and particle filtration your engine needs while maintaining proper fuel flow under varying operating conditions and temperature swings.
Installation Notes
This is a direct spin-on replacement that threads right into your existing fuel system. Always replace your fuel filter with the engine off and fuel system depressurized. It's a good idea to have a drain pan ready since there will be some fuel spillage. The integral post seal helps ensure a leak-free installation when properly tightened.
