The B1402 Baldwin is over built in quality, the media actually does filter the oil rather than just the bypass as we see evidence of media flow in the Balwin, I just bought a [censored] load of Baldwins on sale up here for $6.00 each, I know that in American $6.00 a filter is high cost, up here that is a steal for a premium quality American built Baldwin filter, a Fram for my Nissan at Wally World will run $5.50 compared to Baldwin, Baldwin is our choice, we have torn appart wix, Fram, Nissan and Toyota filters, we find Toyota OEM the same poor quality of Nissan OEM, my father tore a Toyota OEM filter appart on his new Camry, he gave away an entire flat of Toyota OEM filters after seeing the construction and now uses nothing but Baldwin in his Camry too.
I use NOTHING BUT Baldwin in every vehicle I drive including my son's vehicles. We cannot find Baldwin quality at the price anywhere. I speak to or email Baldwin tech people, they will give the absolute beta ratios, flow rates in gallons per minute etc. They cannot do enough for thier customers, they are first rate in my experience, first class, I buy $250.00 worth Balwins at a time for all my vehicles and family vehicle maintenance, I stock up, I get all kinds of Baldwin CDs, manuals, diesel filter/matainance reading materials, Baldwin is in the business to serve, sell quality and stand behind it. I do NOT sell Baldwin but I am sold on it.
One very small examples of our findings on Baldwin, a simple $7.75 Canadian funds Baldwin B11 oil filter made for the Duramax has an absolute Beta ratio of 22 Microns, the AC Delco for $14.00 has absolute beta of 40, it allows double the engine damaging particals for double the price. The B11 will withstand the huge cold oil pressure of a Duramax too. Absolute beta of 22 microns is not far from by pass stats.
Up here one can buy a full Balwin Bypass system for $30.00 and the filter included in Canadian funds, $20.00 more for some basic hardware extra and one has a real effect bypass, my brother does a complete baldwin bypass for $50.00.
Just pick any Baldwin up, feel the weight, costruction, get the specs, deal with the tech people if needed, they are first class, I deal Baldwin after all our our homework here. My Nissan will see nothing but Baldwin for half price and 3 times the quality of Nissan OEM.
When I bought my 92 Cummins about 7 years ago, the fella selling it to me was a heavy duty matainance consultant for heavy equipt service, I saw noting but Baldwin on my Cummins, I ask him why, he told me that in all his experience, Baldwins are the best filters, he told me that if one cannot get Baldwin then Donaldson would be his second choice.
I am going to walk into my Nissan Service desk area and slam down a [censored] OEM Nissan filter torn appart after 5k OCI along with a Baldwin when there is a lot of customers standing at that desk and show the physical difference in fitratioin of the media and the construction of a Baldwin at 1/2 the price, I am going to SAVOR it. Any one using a NISSAN OEM filter, PLEASE tear that cheap piece of [censored] appart and see first hand the [censored] you are putting on your engine. Dont take my word for it, tear the [censored] appart and see for your self.
