Hydraulic Oil Filters & Strainers - Buy Online, Australia-Wide Delivery

Clean oil is the cheapest insurance a hydraulic system can have - most pump, valve and motor failures start as dirty oil. This range covers the full filtration chain: suction strainers and 90 micron suction filters to protect the pump, 10 micron spin-on and tank top return filters to keep the oil genuinely clean, high pressure filters (320-420 bar) to protect valves and motors, plus clogging indicators so you change elements exactly when needed. European-made, with every element, head, housing and complete assembly sold separately or as a kit.

Which hydraulic filter do I need?

• Suction (tank to pump): coarse protection only - a 149 micron in-tank strainer or a 90 micron mesh spin-on unit with 5psi bypass. Never fine media here.
• Return (back to tank): where real filtration happens - 10 micron spin-on assemblies or tank top return filters. If a machine gets one filter, make it this.
• Pressure (after the pump): 3-25 micron absolute high pressure filters protecting servo valves, spools and motors.

Every listing includes a plain-English selection guide, full part number tables, technicians advice and a downloadable spec sheet. Pictures show exactly what is included with every option. Not sure? Call 1300 146 737 with your pump flow and port size - we will spec it in minutes.

FAQ

What micron hydraulic filter should I use? 10 micron nominal on the return line suits most machinery. 3-6 micron absolute for servo/proportional valves. 90 micron mesh or 149 micron strainers for suction only.

Suction strainer or suction filter? A strainer is a simple in-tank mesh (cheap, wash and reuse). A suction filter unit adds a replaceable spin-on element, a bypass valve and a gauge port - better protection for dirty environments.

What thread are spin-on hydraulic filter cans? Ours are 3/4" BSPP (4"/5" cans), 1-1/4" BSPP (large cans) and 1-1/2" UNF for US/agricultural heads - each has its own listing below.

How often should hydraulic filters be changed? First change at 50 hours on a new or repaired system, then every 500 hours or annually - or fit a clogging gauge and change on condition.
