Baldwin B179 Spin-On Filter
The Baldwin B179 is a full-flow lube spin-on oil filter designed for engine protection. It features a transparent housing with an M20 x 1.5mm thread for secure installation. A built-in 8 psid bypass valve and anti-drainback valve maintain consistent oil flow and prevent dry starts. The filter measures 2-27/32 inches in height and 3 inches in outside diameter.
Fits Honda Automotive Kubota Yanmar Engines
This filter suits mechanics and owners servicing Honda automotive platforms plus Kubota and Yanmar engines requiring the specified thread size. The 9.8 micron rating delivers standard full-flow filtration for these applications. Builders working on engines with different thread pitches or larger micron requirements must select an alternative part. No other vehicle or engine families are confirmed by the supplier data.
Critical Spec M20 x 1.5mm Thread
The M20 x 1.5mm thread size is the single specification that determines fitment on the target engine block. Verifying this exact pitch against the service manual is essential before purchase. An incorrect thread will prevent sealing and cause immediate oil loss. All other dimensions and ratings are secondary to this mechanical interface.

Questions about this item
What does the M20 x 1.5 mm thread size mean for installation?
The M20 x 1.5 mm thread matches the engine's filter mounting boss; spin the filter on by hand until the gasket seats, then tighten an additional three-quarters of a turn.
What are the overall dimensions I need to clear in the engine bay?
The filter is 2-27/32 inches tall with a 3-inch outside diameter, so verify that surrounding components allow at least that much clearance.
How do I install this spin-on filter without causing leaks?
Lubricate the gasket with clean oil, thread the filter on until the gasket contacts the base, then turn it three-quarters of a turn further; over-tightening distorts the gasket and causes leaks.
