Application fit
The Baldwin BT216 is a spin-on oil filter built for heavy-duty equipment from Allis Chalmers, Bobcat, Caterpillar, JCB, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Vermeer, Volvo and Perkins engines. It serves technicians who need a direct-fit replacement with a 3/4"-16 thread and 23 micron rating.
Thread limitation
The 3/4"-16 thread size restricts use to housings machined for that exact pitch; it will not seal on metric or coarser imperial threads. The integral G381-A gasket and 8 psid bypass valve are calibrated for this interface, so cross-threading or mismatched ports will compromise filtration.
Micron rating
A 23 micron nominal rating defines the particle size this media captures under full-flow conditions. If the service schedule or engine builder specifies a finer or coarser rating, this filter will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item
Which Baldwin spin-on filter should I choose for a 3/4"-16 thread and 23 micron rating?
The BT216 matches that thread size and micron rating, and includes an 8 psid bypass valve, anti-drainback valve, G381-A integral gasket and standpipe.
What does the 23 micron rating mean once the filter is installed?
It captures particles down to 23 microns in the oil flow while the 8 psid bypass valve opens if the element becomes restricted.
How does the 3/4"-16 thread interface limit what equipment this fits?
It fits only engines or housings with a 3/4"-16 mounting boss, such as listed Allis Chalmers, Bobcat, Caterpillar, JCB, Landini, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Vermeer, Volvo and Perkins applications.
