Chrome Filler-Strainer Breather Cap
The Buyers Products BC40 is a chrome-plated breather cap assembly with an integrated filler strainer. It is designed for machinery reservoirs that require venting and filtered filling in a single unit. The component suits maintenance teams and equipment operators who service hydraulic or lubrication systems.
Integrated Filler Strainer Function
The built-in strainer traps debris during fluid top-ups while the breather allows air exchange. This dual role makes the cap the correct choice when a reservoir opening must handle both tasks without separate fittings. Buyers needing a plain vent without filtration should select a different style.
Sealed Chrome Housing Operation
The chrome finish resists corrosion from splashed fluids and cleaning agents in normal shop conditions. No moving parts or powered elements are present, so the assembly adds no noise, heat or electrical draw to the system. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to chemicals in the product materials.

Questions about this item
What does the BC40 model number tell me about the cap once it is installed?
The BC40 identifies this chrome filler-strainer breather cap assembly; it threads onto the reservoir to vent pressure while the internal strainer keeps debris out of the fluid.
Which thread standard does the cap use and what does that limit in practice?
The cap uses a standard NPT pipe thread, so it fits common hydraulic and gear reservoirs but will not seal on metric or straight-thread ports without an adapter.
What clearance and mounting hardware does the assembly need to fit?
The one-piece chrome housing mounts by threading directly into the tank opening; no separate bolts, brackets or gaskets are required beyond the built-in strainer screen.
