Baldwin BF1276 Fuel Filter Overview
The Baldwin BF1276 is a spin-on fuel filter designed for automotive and industrial fuel systems. It combines filtration with water separation in a single cartridge that threads directly onto the engine or filter head. The unit includes an integral gasket and O-ring for a complete seal.
20 Micron Filtration Limits
A 20 micron rating captures particles that can damage injectors and pumps while allowing adequate flow for most diesel and gasoline applications. The spin-on design uses thread size M16-1.50 for installation. Water collected in the separator bowl must be drained manually at regular intervals to maintain separation efficiency.
Service Capacity and Headroom
The filter housing measures 6 21/32 inches in height and length with a 3 1/32 inch outside diameter, providing substantial contaminant-holding capacity before restriction increases. The integral G449-B gasket eliminates separate seal replacement. Systems requiring finer micron ratings or higher flow volumes will exceed this filter's design envelope.
