Edelmann Power Steering Filter 70699 Black — Universal Inline Dual Filtration, Stainless Mesh & Magnet

The Edelmann Elite Premium Universal Power Steering Filter 70699 is a compact, universal inline filter that uses dual filtration (stainless mesh plus an oversized magnet) to protect power steering systems from metal and non-metal debris.

Keeping contaminants out of your power steering circuit preserves components, reduces noise, and extends the life of hoses, pumps, and racks. The Edelmann Elite combines a high-capacity stainless steel mesh basket with a large magnetic core inside an aircraft-grade anodized aluminum housing. Its compact footprint and interchangeable hose barbs fit most vehicles, making it a simple preventive upgrade during repairs or routine maintenance.

How does this filter reduce wear inside my power steering system?

The filter removes both metallic particles and non-metallic debris before they circulate and abrade components. A strong magnet captures ferrous fragments while the stainless mesh screens out rubber and dirt, reducing scoring and premature failures.

• Dual-action: magnet for metal, mesh for non-metal particles
• Oversized magnet designed to retain fine metal shavings
• Large mesh area for increased contaminant capacity

Will it fit my vehicle and where does it mount?

Edelmann built this as a universal inline solution: the kit includes interchangeable 3/8", 1/2", and 5/8" hose barbs to match common power steering hose sizes. Its short, low-profile body fits into tight engine bays and can be installed in the return line where there is room for an inline filter.

• Includes three barb adapters for broad hose compatibility
• Compact design for cramped engine compartments
• Mounts inline—preferably on the return side for easiest service access

How durable and serviceable is the Edelmann Elite filter?

Constructed from aircraft-grade anodized aluminum with a stainless steel mesh basket, the Edelmann Elite is built for longevity. The mesh basket is serviceable—remove, clean, and reinstall—while the magnet remains sealed to continuously collect metal fragments without routine replacement.

• Aircraft-grade anodized aluminum housing resists corrosion
• Stainless steel mesh for long-lasting filtration and easy cleaning
• Oversized, sealed magnet for continuous metal capture

What performance benefits can I expect after installing this filter?

Expect fewer circulating contaminants, smoother steering feel, and reduced risk of component damage that leads to leaks or pump failure. The larger mesh and magnet provide higher flow capacity and greater particle-holding ability compared with many stock or generic inline filters.

• Improved contaminant handling with increased flow rate
• Reduced risk of abrasive wear on pump and rack surfaces
• Helps prevent premature failures that can be costly to repair

Who is this for: The Edelmann Elite Premium Universal Power Steering Filter 70699 is ideal for DIY mechanics, professional technicians, and car owners who want an easy, robust upgrade to protect steering components. It suits drivers looking to extend the life of an aging steering system, garages performing steering repairs, and anyone who prefers reusable, serviceable filtration over disposable options. If your vehicle uses hydraulic power steering and has space in the return line, this filter provides a high-capacity, universal solution to reduce contaminants and support long-term reliability.
