Baldwin Filters PT512 HVAC Control
The Baldwin Filters PT512 is a full-flow lube cartridge element designed for E. M. D. locomotive applications. It measures 20 inches in height with a 4-1/2 inch outside diameter and a 1 23/32 inch inside diameter. An attached gasket is included for sealing. The transparent housing allows visual inspection of the element condition.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
This filter suits maintenance teams servicing E. M. D. locomotives that require a full-flow cartridge of these exact dimensions. It is not for buyers who need a spin-on canister design or a filter with a different height, diameter or thread specification. It is also not for automotive or light-truck engines that use standard spin-on filters.
Build integration and system fit
The cartridge installs directly into the locomotive’s existing filter housing without additional adapters. The attached gasket eliminates the need for a separate seal component. The transparent body lets technicians confirm element status during routine checks. The 20-inch height and 4-1/2 inch diameter dictate the housing clearance required.

Questions about this item
What engine or housing does the 20-inch PT512 cartridge install into?
It is designed for E. M. D. locomotive applications where the full-flow lube element mounts directly in the engine's filter housing.
Will the PT512 fit the same mounting points as older Baldwin elements on my locomotive?
The cartridge uses an attached gasket and has no thread, so it seals against the existing housing face just like earlier full-flow elements.
How can I confirm the PT512 is seated correctly after installation?
Verify the attached gasket makes full contact with the housing flange and that the 20-inch cartridge sits flush with no visible gaps.
