Baldwin Filters B99-MPG Spin-on Oil Filter 5.38in Od Heavy Duty

Product Description

The BALDWIN FILTERS B99-MPG is a spin-on oil filter built for heavy-duty engine applications. It provides high-capacity filtration to remove wear particles and contaminants from engine oil, helping protect internal engine components over extended service intervals. The filter measures 5.38 inches in outside diameter and 12.09 inches in overall length, with a 1-1/2 inch thread size for a secure mount. Weighing 4.542 pounds, this is a full-size commercial-grade filter suited for large displacement diesel and gas engines. An included I-gasket ensures a proper seal at installation. Fleet maintenance technicians and diesel mechanics are the primary installers.

This filter is designed for use in heavy-duty commercial and industrial engine applications where high oil volume and extended filtration capacity are required. Typical install scenarios include large diesel engines found in construction equipment, over-the-road trucks, and stationary power units. It cross-references directly to Caterpillar 2444484, Fleetguard LF3566, and Wix 51792XE, making it a direct service replacement in fleets already using those part numbers.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified diesel mechanic or fleet maintenance technician. Shut down the engine and allow it to cool before servicing the oil filter to prevent burns and oil spills. Hand-tighten the filter until the gasket seats, then follow the engine manufacturer's final-tightening procedure. Dispose of used oil and filters in accordance with local environmental regulations.
