Baldwin Filters P7012 Automotive Oil Filter

Product Description

The BALDWIN FILTERS P7012 is a spin-on automotive oil filter designed for heavy-duty engine lubrication systems. It removes contaminants from engine oil to protect bearings, cylinders, and other precision engine components during operation. With an outside diameter of 7.3125 inches and an overall length of 13.59375 inches, this is a full-size filter suited to large displacement diesel and gasoline engines found in commercial vehicles and off-highway equipment. Installation is handled by diesel technicians and fleet maintenance professionals.

This filter is sized for high-capacity lubrication systems that require a large filter volume to maintain adequate oil cleanliness over extended service intervals. Typical applications include heavy trucks, construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and similar equipment where engine displacement and oil capacity demand a filter of this size. Its dimensions place it in the class of filters used in commercial and industrial engine service rather than light passenger vehicle applications.

Key Features

• Outside diameter of 7.3125 inches suits large-displacement engine applications
• Overall length of 13.59375 inches provides high filter media volume for extended service capacity
• Spin-on design allows for straightforward filter removal and installation during routine service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement oil filter for heavy-duty engine applications requiring a spin-on filter with a 7.3125-inch outside diameter and a 13.59375-inch overall length. Verify thread size and anti-drainback valve requirements against the equipment service manual before installation.

Installation Notes

Oil filter replacement is performed by licensed diesel technicians or qualified fleet maintenance personnel. Shut down the engine and allow it to cool before removing the old filter. Use an appropriate filter wrench sized for the outside diameter of this unit. Apply a light film of clean engine oil to the gasket before threading the new filter on, and confirm the gasket seats correctly to prevent oil leaks during operation.
