When your hydraulic system starts running sluggish or you notice jerky operation on your Cat or Grove machine, there's a good chance your hydraulic filter needs attention. This Baldwin BT8426MPG filter keeps contamination out of your hydraulic system, protecting those expensive pumps, valves, and cylinders from the dirt and metal particles that can turn them into costly repairs.

Built for Real Work
This filter fits Caterpillar and Grove equipment commonly used in construction, material handling, and heavy-duty applications. Whether you're running a Cat excavator on a job site or operating Grove crane equipment for material handling, clean hydraulic fluid is what keeps these machines responsive and reliable when you need them most.
Made to Last
Baldwin filters are built to handle the tough conditions your equipment faces every day. The filtration media captures particles and debris before they can damage sensitive hydraulic components, while the sturdy housing withstands the vibration and stress of demanding work cycles. The bypass valve ensures oil keeps flowing even under extreme conditions.
Installation Notes
This spin-on filter threads directly onto the existing base—just remove the old filter and install the new one. Apply a thin film of clean hydraulic oil to the gasket before installation and hand-tighten plus 3/4 turn for proper sealing. Check your hydraulic fluid level after changing the filter and top off if needed with the correct hydraulic oil type.
