Filter element for hydraulic systems
The Baldwin Filters PT8442 is a cartridge-type hydraulic filter element measuring 16 1/32 in length with a 4 3/8 in outside diameter. It carries a 9.8 micron rating and includes an attached gasket and grommet for sealing. The element is designed for use with Ingersoll-Rand compressors and has an inside diameter of 11/16 in.
Verify compressor model and installation space
Confirm the filter matches the specifications required by your Ingersoll-Rand compressor before ordering. Check that the 16 1/32 in height and 4 3/8 in diameter fit within the available housing clearance. Ensure the 11/16 in inside diameter aligns with the mounting post on the equipment.
Cartridge construction with integrated seals
The cartridge design uses a single-piece element with the gasket and grommet already attached, reducing the number of separate parts to handle during service. No threads are present, so installation relies on the compression fit of the included seals. The 9.8 micron media provides consistent filtration for hydraulic fluid in the specified compressor applications.

Questions about this item
Does the PT8442 element ship with the gasket and grommet already attached, or must they be purchased separately?
The filter includes an attached gasket and an attached grommet, so no separate seals are required for installation.
Which micron rating should I select when the spec sheet lists 9.8?
The element is rated at 9.8 microns, providing that single filtration level for the application.
What does the 9.8 micron rating mean for contaminant capture in my hydraulic system?
A 9.8 micron rating indicates the filter will trap particles of that size and larger, protecting downstream components from abrasive wear.
