Engine Air Element 1-1/2" H

The Baldwin Filters PA30268 is an automotive engine air element designed to filter incoming air before it reaches the combustion chamber. It serves vehicle owners and maintenance professionals who need a direct replacement element for compatible engine air housings. This product is not for buyers who need a complete air filter assembly with housing or those seeking filters for non-automotive applications. The element-only design requires an existing housing that matches the specified dimensions.

Build Quality and Mounting Implications

The filter uses an element-only construction without an integrated frame or housing, meaning it installs directly into the vehicle's original air box. Dimensions of 1 1/2 in height, 6 5/8 in width and 11 21/32 in length dictate the exact housing cavity required for a proper seal. Installation involves opening the air box, removing the old element and seating this replacement so the perimeter seals evenly against the housing walls. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Critical Fit Specification

The single specification that determines compatibility is the physical envelope of 1 1/2 in height by 6 5/8 in width by 11 21/32 in length. If the air box cavity does not match these three dimensions, the element will not seal and unfiltered air will bypass the filter. No other specification overrides this dimensional requirement; verify the housing measurements before purchase.

Questions about this item

How does the 1-1/2 in height affect fit in the air cleaner housing?

The element height of 1-1/2 in must match the housing cavity depth; measure the sealing surface to lid clearance before ordering.

What are the critical outside dimensions for mounting this element?

Overall width is 6 5/8 in and length is 11 21/32 in; verify the housing flange matches these figures to seal correctly.

Which way does the element install and what step is often missed?

Install with the pleats vertical and the sealing gasket facing the housing flange; the common error is forgetting to clean the flange surface before seating the new element.
