Hydraulic Filter Element
The Baldwin Filters PT8461 is a cartridge-style hydraulic filter element designed for Caterpillar graders. It removes contaminants from hydraulic fluid to protect system components. The unit is supplied new and ready for installation. A 27 micron rating indicates the particle size captured during operation.
Cartridge Build and Sealing
The element measures 11-1/16 inches in height and 5 1/8 inches in outside diameter with a 3 11/32 inch inside diameter. Two attached gaskets are included to simplify the sealing process during replacement. No threading is required for this cartridge design. The construction fits the specified grader housings directly.
Service Life and Flow
The 27 micron media balances contaminant holding capacity with hydraulic flow resistance under normal operating conditions. Regular replacement intervals maintain system cleanliness and pressure stability. The filter handles the fluid volumes encountered in grader hydraulic circuits. No additional power draw or noise is introduced by the passive element.
