FAQs
What is the main benefit of the long, slim design?
The primary benefit is its ability to fit into narrow or confined openings where a standard, rounder strainer would not. This makes it a perfect slim suction strainer for narrow openings, such as holes drilled in ice or tight access points.
Is this strainer resistant to rust?
Yes, it is constructed from zinc-plated steel, which provides good resistance to corrosion and rust in typical water pumping applications.
What size debris can this strainer block?
The strainer features 3/8" holes, allowing it to effectively block larger debris like leaves, sticks, and rocks while permitting adequate water flow.
What kind of thread does this suction strainer have?
It uses a standard female pipe thread (FNPT), ensuring compatibility with a wide range of male-threaded hoses and fittings.
Can I use this for drinking water?
This strainer is intended for general water transfer, dewatering, and industrial applications. It is not rated or certified for potable water systems.
How do I choose the right size?
Select the strainer size that matches the nominal pipe size of your suction hose. For example, a 3" hose requires a 3" strainer (part number G34L-300).
