Baldwin Filters PA5451 Automotive Air Filter Element

Product Description

The BALDWIN FILTERS PA5451 is an oval automotive air filter element designed to trap airborne contaminants and ambient dirt before they enter the engine intake. With an overall length of 2.563 inches and an outer diameter range of 4.25 to 8.25 inches, this filter uses high-efficiency media to deliver optimal airflow while blocking particulates. It is a direct-replacement panel and element-style filter suited for light- to medium-duty automotive and off-highway applications. Licensed technicians and fleet service professionals install this part as part of routine air induction maintenance.

The PA5451 fits applications where an oval-profile air filter element is required in the air induction system. The oval shape and compact overall length make it appropriate for equipment with space-constrained filter housings. Compatible cross-reference part numbers from the input data include Case 82988917, Donaldson P600975, Fleetguard AF26655, and Wix 549276, covering a range of OEM and aftermarket fitments. This filter is appropriate for both automotive and light off-highway equipment serviced by qualified technicians.
