Primary filter note

The listed outer air filter part number is 1265510C1.
Safety filter note
The listed inner safety air filter is 87420236. Do not remove the safety element for normal cleaning; replace it if dirty, damaged or oil-soaked.
Fitment note
Check the old filter, air cleaner housing label and parts book before ordering if the tractor has had an engine or intake-housing change.
Power range note
This is a higher-airflow class, so restriction matters fast. If it is working in dust, inspect before the 500-hour planning mark instead of waiting for visible power loss.
Engine airflow note
The displacement helps identify the engine family; horsepower tells you how hard it breathes under load. The element still has to match the canister.
Service note
Clean loose dust from the air cleaner housing before pulling the filter. Never run the tractor with the filter removed, even for a quick test.
Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac Air Filter FAQs
How do I avoid mixing up the Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac air-filter elements?
For a full parts check, separate the service element from the safety element: buy the outer/primary service element first, then buy the inner safety element only if it is dirty, damaged or due. Do not accidentally order 1265510C1 when you meant the safety filter, or 87420236 when you meant the outer filter.
What is the safest way to match a Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac air filter?
The safest match is not just the printed number. Use 47429531, then check whether the element seats fully without forcing the cover.
Can a dirty air filter affect Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac performance?
This is a higher-airflow class, so restriction matters fast. If it is working in dust, inspect before the 500-hour planning mark instead of waiting for visible power loss.
What part-number mistake should I avoid on a Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac?
The main number 47429531 should be treated as the control number. The other numbers need their own fitment checks, not blind substitution.
How do the Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac outer and primary filters differ?
This is not a one-number job. The outer and inner elements have different jobs, so compare both old parts before buying a kit.
Should I replace the Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac inner safety filter every time?
Because the setup includes a safety element, service the primary element first and inspect the inside of the housing. If dust reached the safety element, the job is no longer just a quick outer-filter swap.
Should I use engine displacement to verify a Case IH Steiger 500 Quadtrac filter?
The displacement helps identify the engine family; horsepower tells you how hard it breathes under load. The element still has to match the canister.
Official information note
Mistakes do happen. Air filter specs can change by year, engine, serial range, market and air cleaner housing. Check the old filter, operator manual, parts book and official caseih.com website before ordering or installing an air filter.
