Hydraulic Filter Element for Volvo Loaders
The Baldwin Filters PT9381-MPG is a cartridge-style hydraulic filter element designed for Volvo loaders. It uses a wire-supported Maximum Performance Glass media and includes a bail handle for easier handling during service. A new O-ring is supplied with the element to ensure a proper seal upon installation. The unit is sold as a filter element only, without a housing.
Replaces Worn Cartridge Elements in Hydraulic
This element directly replaces a used cartridge when the hydraulic system requires fresh filtration media. The upgrade is worth it when the existing element has reached its service interval or shows signs of pressure drop across the filter. The glass media construction provides consistent filtration efficiency throughout the service life. No thread engagement is required as the element seats via the bail handle and O-ring arrangement.
12 5/16 Inch Height with 3 1/16 Inch Diameter
The filter measures 12 5/16 inches in both height and length with an outside diameter of 3 1/16 inches. The inside diameter of 1 23/32 inches fits the designated Volvo loader filter head. It comfortably handles hydraulic fluid flow rates matched to this physical envelope and micron rating. The element runs out of capacity when the glass media becomes saturated with contaminants, indicated by a rising differential pressure.

Questions about this item
What housing diameter fits the 3 1/16 in outside diameter of the PT9381-MPG cartridge?
The cartridge has a 3 1/16 in outside diameter and 1 23/32 in inside diameter, so the filter housing must accept those dimensions for a proper seal.
How do I correctly install the bail handle and O-ring on this hydraulic element?
Seat the included O-ring in its groove, insert the cartridge into the housing, then engage the bail handle to lock the element in place — skipping the O-ring causes leaks.
When should the wire-supported glass media element be replaced in a Volvo loader?
Replace the cartridge at the loader manufacturer's service interval or when the pressure differential gauge indicates the glass media is saturated.
