Baldwin Filters RS5745 Automotive Air Filter Element

Product Description

The BALDWIN FILTERS RS5745 is a radial air filter element designed for heavy-duty automotive and equipment applications. It measures 6.25 inches in outside diameter and 14.063 inches in overall length. The element uses a urethane compound to form molded ends, creating a reliable seal that prevents airborne dirt and other contaminants from entering the intake system. Licensed technicians and equipment service professionals install this filter as part of routine air system maintenance on heavy-duty vehicles and machinery. The radial design supports straightforward servicing and consistent seating during reinstallation.

This filter element fits heavy-duty automotive and equipment air filtration systems where a radial-style element with a 6.25-inch OD and 14.063-inch length is specified. It is suited for fleet maintenance shops, equipment dealers, and independent service operations handling high-hour machines. Cross-reference data confirms fitment compatibility with Donaldson P628326 and Wix 49021, making it a direct replacement option for those part numbers in applicable equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified diesel mechanic or heavy-equipment technician. Shut down the engine and allow it to cool before opening the air cleaner housing. Inspect the housing and sealing surfaces for damage or debris before seating the new element. Ensure the molded end caps are fully seated and the housing cover is properly secured before returning the equipment to service.
