Baldwin PF866 Fuel Filter Element
The Baldwin PF866 is a suction-side fuel filter element designed for diesel and gasoline systems that require a 45-micron rating. It serves maintenance technicians and fleet operators who need a direct-fit replacement element for compatible filter housings.
45-Micron Filtration Capacity
The element provides 45-micron nominal filtration, capturing contaminants before they reach the injection system. It handles standard flow rates for compatible housings but is not suited for applications requiring finer micron ratings or higher pressure differentials beyond the housing design limits.
Included Gaskets Simplify Installation
Two gaskets are attached to the element, eliminating the need to source separate seals during service. This reduces assembly time and helps ensure a proper seal on both the 17/32-inch and 11/16-inch inside diameters without additional parts.

Questions about this item
Will the 2-31/32 in height and 2-9/16 in outside diameter match the housing on my older fuel system?
The element measures 2-31/32 in height and 2-9/16 in outside diameter; compare those dimensions to your existing housing before installation.
How can I verify the 45 micron rating is filtering correctly once installed?
Monitor fuel flow and pressure after fitting; a clean 45 micron element should deliver steady supply without pressure drop or visible debris downstream.
Does the PF866 come with the two attached gaskets shown in the specs or do I need to buy seals separately?
The filter includes two gaskets already attached to the element, so no separate seals are required for installation.
