WG1072 filter element: specifications & equivalents

Q: What are the dimensions of the WG1072 filter element?

The published envelope is 175 mm OD × 226 mm length with a 107.5 mm inside diameter (6.890 × 8.898 in × 4.232 in ID). Confirm against the housing drawing before ordering.

Q: What micron rating does WG1072 use?

This element is rated 7 µm absolute — β7(c)≥1000. Always compare Beta ratings at the same test point: two brands may print different micron numbers for the same physical grade.

The WG1072 is a Filtrec inline-line hydraulic filter element, built with glassfiber media, sized 175 × 226 mm OD × length (ID 107.5 mm), rated at 7 µm absolute (β7(c)≥1000). Verify against the current manufacturer data sheet before ordering.

Catalog verified. Parameters extracted from the manufacturer’s electronic catalog / official interchange document and checked 2026-10-03. Confidence score 0.90.

Dimensions and media grade are taken from Filtrec’s official Cross Navigator, which maps this element to specific competitor part numbers. Filtrec does not publish collapse pressure or seal compound in this API for every code — verify collapse rating, seal execution and bypass setting against the current Filtrec data sheet for the target housing before ordering.

Cross references & equivalents

Equivalent model	Brand	Match level	Note
↔ HF40007	Fleetguard	partial	Filtrec's official Cross Navigator maps FLEETGUARD HF40007 to FILTREC WG1072 as a direct replacement, publishing the FILTREC element's OD/ID/height envelope and media grade. Rated micron differs (6 vs 7 µm) — verify efficiency class and collapse/seal for the housing before substituting.

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

“10 µm nominal” and “12 µm at β1000” can describe the very same media — one is reported at β≥200, the other at β≥1000 per ISO 16889. Compare ratings at the same Beta test point, not just the printed micron number.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of the WG1072 filter element?

The published envelope is 175 mm OD × 226 mm length with a 107.5 mm inside diameter (6.890 × 8.898 in × 4.232 in ID). Confirm against the housing drawing before ordering.

What micron rating does WG1072 use?

This element is rated 7 µm absolute — β7(c)≥1000. Always compare Beta ratings at the same test point: two brands may print different micron numbers for the same physical grade.

What replaces the WG1072 filter element?

1 partial match(es) requiring parameter review

Is a same-envelope aftermarket element always a drop-in replacement?

No. Matching OD and length only proves the cartridge fits the bowl. End-cap style, seal compound, micron/Beta rating, collapse pressure and bypass configuration must also match; the table above tags every equivalent as full, partial or verify for exactly this reason.
