Hydraulic Filter Element 18-5/16" Length
The Baldwin Filters PT551-10 is a cartridge-style hydraulic filter element designed for equipment maintenance. It fits machinery from brands such as CMI, Driltech, Gomaco, LeRoi and Lorain. The unit includes two attached end seals for installation readiness.

Questions about this item
Will the 20-micron cartridge create extra back-pressure or heat in a hydraulic system running all day?
The 20-micron rating is designed for normal hydraulic flow and does not add measurable back-pressure or heat during continuous operation.
Which fittings or adapters must I already have to install this 18-5/16-inch cartridge?
The element uses attached end seals and has no thread size, so it fits directly into compatible CMI, Driltech, Gomaco, LeRoi or Lorain housings without extra adapters.
Can this filter replace the original cartridge on an older Lorain machine that takes a 5-inch outside-diameter element?
Yes, the 5-inch outside diameter and 3-1/4-inch inside diameter match the Lorain specification, and the included end seals ensure a proper seal.
