Baldwin PT568 Hydraulic Filter Element
The Baldwin PT568 is a cartridge-style hydraulic filter element designed for Timberjack logging equipment. It carries a 9.8 micron rating to capture fine contaminants in hydraulic circuits. The element measures 9 3/32 inches in length and height with a 5 1/8 inch outside diameter. Two attached gaskets are included for sealing.
Installation Notes and Common Issues
Installation requires removing the old cartridge and seating the new element squarely so both gaskets seal evenly. Over-tightening can crush the gaskets and cause bypass leaks. The inside diameter of 13/32 inch must align with the housing post; forcing a misaligned fit damages the centre tube. Always clean the housing bore before fitting the new element.
Suitable Users and Limitations
This filter suits operators maintaining Timberjack hydraulic systems that specify the PT568 part number. It is not intended for engines, transmissions or fuel circuits. Buyers needing a different micron rating, thread type or overall length should verify their equipment manual before ordering. The element is sold individually without a housing or additional hardware.
