Baldwin’s BD50000 Lube Filter Designed for Durability

Baldwin is offering the BD50000 lube filter designed for durability and performance and is an alternative to the LF14000NN filter.

The BD50000 is designed to meet or exceed the original equipment filter over the full life of the filter, according to Baldwin. The filter is designed for higher overall efficiency with improved protection against wear to extend parts life. It has a 17% greater capacity than the OE filter for longer life and a 40% lower restriction at cold-start to improve flow and reduce wear.

The filter was also developed with high structural integrity with improved reinforcement to ensure durability and prevent contaminant leaks.

Baldwin Filters are routinely tested at higher than the industry standards to ensure reliable performance in tough conditions.
