Baldwin BF588 Fuel Filter Spin-On
The Baldwin BF588 is a secondary spin-on fuel filter designed for automotive and industrial fuel systems. It carries a 7 micron rating to capture fine contaminants before fuel reaches the engine. The canister measures 7 11/32 inches in height and length with a 4 1/4 inch outside diameter. An integral G381-A gasket and post seal are included for a reliable fit.
Suited for 7/8-14 thread systems
This filter fits fuel heads or housings that accept a 7/8 inch -14 thread size and the listed dimensions. It serves operators needing a secondary filtration stage with a 7 micron rating. Buyers whose equipment requires a different thread pitch, a different micron rating, or a primary filter head design should look at other parts. Vehicles or machinery with non-spin-on filter housings cannot use this unit.
Thread size 7/8 inch -14 decides fit
The single specification that determines whether this is the correct part is the 7/8 inch -14 thread size. The filter must match the exact thread on the fuel filter head or housing to seal and function. Always verify the thread specification on the equipment before ordering. No other dimension or rating overrides this compatibility requirement.

Questions about this item
What thread size does the BF588 use for its spin-on mounting?
The filter mounts on a 7/8 In. -14 thread, so the housing or adapter must match that pitch and diameter exactly.
How much clearance does the 7 11/32 in height and 4 1/4 in outside diameter require?
Allow at least 7 11/32 in of vertical space and a 4 1/4 in diameter circle for the canister to seat without interference.
Does the integral G381-A gasket seal on its own, or is a separate post seal also needed?
Both the integral G381-A gasket and the integral post seal are built in; install the filter dry and torque to spec without adding extra seals.
