Baldwin Filters RS3538 Automotive Air Filter

Product Description

The BALDWIN FILTERS RS3538 is a replacement automotive air filter designed to remove airborne contaminants from the intake air stream before they reach the engine. Proper filtration protects cylinders, pistons, and valves from abrasive particles that accelerate wear. This filter is suited for installation by qualified service technicians or experienced mechanics working on equipment and vehicles where the cross-referenced OEM and aftermarket part numbers apply. Weighing 3.85 pounds, it is a direct-fit style replacement intended for straightforward service intervals.

The RS3538 is used in automotive and light equipment applications where a standard panel or radial-seal air filter element is specified. It is appropriate for both routine preventive maintenance and unscheduled filter replacement. Service intervals will vary by operating environment, with dusty or high-debris conditions requiring more frequent inspection and replacement.
