HF29175 filter element: specifications & equivalents
The HF29175 is a Fleetguard inline-line hydraulic filter element, built with microglass media, sized 87 × 189 mm OD × length, rated at 16 µm absolute (16 µm at β75(c); 18 µm at β200(c); 25 µm at β1000(c) per ISO 16889). Verify against the current manufacturer data sheet before ordering.
Specifications and cross-references are taken from the Fleetguard online catalog API. Where both TWA and Beta ratings are published the conventions differ — verify cleanliness targets, collapse rating and seal configuration against the current Fleetguard data sheet before ordering.

How the HF29175 model number is decoded
- HF29175Fleetguard HF-series hydraulic cartridge element part number.
- 189 mmOverall height.
- 87 mmLargest outside diameter.
- 16 µm at β75(c); 18 µm at β200(c); 25 µm at β1000(c) per ISO 16889Published efficiency ratings.
Typical equipment & applications
- Construction, agricultural and industrial hydraulic circuits
- Mobile-equipment hydraulic return and pressure lines
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.
- Nitrile (NBR) seals are standard for mineral hydraulic oil but fail early in some phosphate-ester fluids and at sustained high temperature; verify seal compound against the fluid data sheet (fluorocarbon/Viton executions may be required).
- End-cap geometry and the number/position of O-rings block interchange even when OD and length match — visually compare end caps before fitting, especially with aftermarket cartridges.
