This Baldwin BT260 filter keeps your hydraulic system running smooth and responsive when you need it most.

Built for Real Farm Work
This filter works across a wide range of equipment from utility tractors to large construction machines. Whether you're running a loader all day, operating a three-point hitch for field work, or using hydraulics for specialized equipment, clean hydraulic fluid keeps these systems working smoothly and prevents expensive component damage.
Made to Last
Baldwin has been making filters for decades, and they know what it takes to handle farm conditions. The filter media captures particles and debris before they can damage sensitive hydraulic components like pumps, valves, and cylinders, while the sturdy housing withstands vibration and pressure fluctuations without failing.
Installation Notes
This is a direct spin-on replacement that installs in minutes. Always shut down equipment and relieve hydraulic pressure before changing the filter. Apply a thin coat of clean hydraulic fluid to the new gasket, then hand-tighten only until the gasket contacts the mounting surface plus another 3/4 turn.
