Description
When your hydraulic system starts feeling sluggish or you're hearing that pump working harder than it should, there's a good chance your hydraulic filter is clogged up with debris and metal particles. Clean hydraulic fluid is the lifeblood of your equipment—whether you're running a Caterpillar excavator moving dirt all day or operating Daewoo equipment on a construction site. This Baldwin BT344S filter keeps your hydraulic system running smooth and protects those expensive pumps and cylinders from premature wear.
What You're Getting
- 20 PSID bypass valve that keeps oil flowing even when the filter gets loaded with debris, preventing system damage
- Compact 4 15/32 inch length with 3 23/32 inch outer diameter for tight installation spaces
- Standard 13/16-16 thread size for direct replacement on factory filter bases
- Quality Baldwin construction that handles pressure spikes and temperature swings of heavy equipment work
- Filtration media designed to capture harmful particles while maintaining proper flow rates
Built for Real Construction Work
This filter is built for the demanding hydraulic systems found on Caterpillar and Daewoo construction equipment. Whether you're operating an excavator digging foundations, a loader moving materials, or other heavy machinery on a job site, these machines depend on clean hydraulic fluid to deliver the power and precision you need to get the work done efficiently.
Made to Last
Baldwin filters are engineered to handle the pressure spikes, temperature swings, and contaminant loads that come with real-world hydraulic work. The filtration media captures particles and debris before they can damage sensitive hydraulic components, while the sturdy housing withstands the vibration and stress of daily operation.
Installation Notes
This is a direct spin-on replacement—just unscrew the old filter and thread on the new one. Apply a thin film of clean hydraulic oil to the gasket before installation, then hand-tighten until the gasket contacts the base, plus another three-quarters turn. Don't over-tighten, as that can damage the gasket and cause leaks.
