Baldwin Filters PA1639 Automotive Air Filter Element

Product Description

The BALDWIN FILTERS PA1639 is a round air filter element designed for automotive and light-duty engine applications. It filters incoming air before it reaches the engine, blocking airborne contaminants that cause accelerated wear on internal components. At 5 inches overall length with a 4-13/32 inch outside diameter, this element fits a defined range of OEM filter housings. Metal end caps are securely affixed to the media pack, providing a reliable seal that prevents unfiltered air bypass. Licensed technicians and fleet service professionals install this element as a routine maintenance item during scheduled air filter service intervals.

This filter element suits automotive engines where a round, canister-style air filter element is specified. The 5 inch overall length and 4-13/32 inch outside diameter define its fitment envelope. It is appropriate for scheduled preventive maintenance in shop environments handling light vehicles or equipment with compatible filter housing dimensions. The element is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 6 units, making it practical for shop stock or fleet maintenance programs.
