Mobile and industrial return lines
Stauff RF-160 return line filters sit on the tank top of power units, presses and mobile machines. The element cleans all the oil coming back from the circuit before it reaches the pump again.
Steel mill and plant hydraulics
Mill stands, shears and handling equipment use RF-160 filters on high flow return lines. A spare element on the shelf means the change can happen as soon as the indicator trips.
Marine and engine room systems
Deck machinery and steering gear power packs often carry Stauff tank top filters. Keeping elements on board avoids waiting for a port delivery.
Planned maintenance stock
Sites with several RF-160 housings can hold a stock of elements for scheduled changes at a lower price than buying OEM every time.
No. It is an aftermarket element made to the dimensions and filtration grade of the Stauff RE160G03B (RE-160-G-03-B/4). It is not made by or affiliated with Stauff, and the Stauff part number is used only to show what it replaces.
Yes if your filter takes the Stauff RE-160-G element, as in the RF-160 return line filter. Check the old element: 114 mm outside diameter, 68.2 mm bore and 334 mm overall length.
RE is a return line element, 160 the size, G the glass fibre media, 03 the filtration rating in µm and B the nitrile (NBR) seals. The /4 suffix on Stauff's full code is the design version.
Use the grade the filter was specified with, usually printed on the housing or the old element. 3 and 5 µm protect servo and proportional valves, 10 µm suits general hydraulics, and 20 µm is for coarse return line duty.
Change it when the filter's clogging indicator shows the element is loaded, or at the interval in your maintenance plan, whichever comes first. A loaded element that goes into bypass lets dirty oil through.
