Baldwin BW5072 Coolant Filter
The Baldwin BW5072 is a spin-on coolant filter designed for Cummins engines. It uses a BTA PLUS formula and carries a 20 micron rating to remove contaminants from the cooling system. The unit features a 11/16 in.-16 thread size and includes an integral G381-A gasket for a secure seal. It is sold as a new component for heavy-duty machinery maintenance.
Replaces standard coolant filters without
This filter upgrades basic filtration by incorporating the BTA PLUS formula, which releases coolant additives during operation. The jump is worth it when extended service intervals and automated additive replenishment are required for the cooling system. It is not for buyers who need a blank filter without chemical treatment or those servicing engines with incompatible thread specifications.
Simple spin-on installation with integral gasket
Installation follows standard spin-on procedure using the 11/16 in.-16 threads and the included G381-A integral gasket. The self-contained gasket eliminates separate seal placement errors. What usually goes wrong is cross-threading during hand-tightening or failing to lubricate the gasket, which can cause leaks or damage the filter base.

Questions about this item
What thread size does the BW5072 coolant filter need for mounting?
The filter mounts on an 11/16 in.-16 thread. Verify the engine block port matches this specification before installation.
What is the common installation mistake with the integral gasket on this spin-on filter?
The G381-A integral gasket seals the filter; the error is over-tightening. Hand-tighten until the gasket contacts the base, then turn only the specified additional rotation.
When should the BTA PLUS additive package inside this filter be replaced?
The filter contains six units of BTA PLUS formula. Replace the entire spin-on canister at the engine manufacturer's recommended coolant service interval to replenish the additive.
