Baldwin Filters PT9237 Hydraulic Filter Element
This Baldwin Filters PT9237 is a new cartridge-type hydraulic filter element designed for fluid-power systems that require a wire-mesh supported element with an integral gasket and attached spring. It includes a built-in bypass valve to maintain flow if the element becomes restricted. The unit suits maintenance teams and equipment owners who need a direct replacement filter for compatible hydraulic housings.
Replaces worn cartridge elements
Install this element when an existing cartridge shows pressure-drop spikes, visible contamination or has reached the service interval specified by the equipment manufacturer. The jump is worth it when the housing accepts a 5 7/32 inch long cartridge with a 2 3/4 inch outside diameter and 1 1/8 inch inside diameter, and when the bypass-valve setting matches the original specification.
Fits hydraulic housings with matching dimensions
The element slides into housings that accept the stated length, diameter and threadless mounting style, and the integral gasket seals against the housing bore without extra parts. The attached spring keeps the element seated under vibration, while the bypass valve protects downstream components during cold starts or heavy contamination events. Verify housing compatibility before ordering.
