Baldwin Filters AF525-WN wing nut

This Baldwin Filters wing nut is a steel fastener with a 7/16-20 thread and an overall length of 1 31/32 in. It suits technicians who need a replacement wing nut for filter housings or similar automotive body repair tasks. The simple wing design allows hand tightening without tools in the field.

Steel construction handles repeated service cycles

The steel body resists deformation when the nut is tightened and loosened repeatedly during filter changes. Thread integrity is maintained under normal service torque so the nut continues to engage cleanly over many maintenance intervals. Corrosion resistance is adequate for under-hood exposure.

Direct hand installation avoids cross-threading

The wing lugs give enough leverage to start and seat the nut by hand, reducing the chance of cross-threading the 7/16-20 threads. The only common issue is stripped threads if excessive force is applied with pliers instead of hand pressure. Clean threads before fitting to ensure smooth engagement.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the 7/16-20 thread wing nut produce during continuous use?

The steel wing nut has no moving parts or power source, so it generates no heat and makes no noise while installed.

What existing filter housing or stud must I already have for the 7/16-20 thread to engage correctly?

You need a filter head or mounting stud with a matching 7/16-20 thread pitch for the wing nut to screw on securely.

Will the 1 31/32 in length wing nut clear the same mounting brackets used with older Baldwin filter bodies?

Its 1 31/32 in overall length fits the same envelope as the original AF525 hardware, so existing brackets remain compatible.
