Suction Strainer for Fluid Intake
This Zoro Select suction strainer protects pump inlets by filtering debris from the fluid stream. It suits industrial, agricultural or mobile hydraulic circuits that require a side-entry perforated screen. The steel construction resists mechanical damage in dirty environments. Buyers who need a top-mounted or fine-mesh screen will not be served by this design.
Fits 3 in NPSM Inlet Connections
The strainer threads directly onto a 3 inch NPSM male fitting, so the surrounding pipework must match that thread standard. Its side-round perforation pattern allows flow to enter laterally, which frees up vertical space above the tank or sump. No gasket, seal or mounting hardware is included in the supplied unit.
Replaces Clogged or Damaged Intake Screens
Install this strainer when an existing screen has collapsed, corroded or passes excessive particulate. The jump is worth it whenever pump cavitation or premature wear traces back to inadequate inlet filtration. It does not address suction-line sizing or net-positive-suction-head deficits.

Questions about this item
How quickly does the 3 in NPSM inlet clog under continuous suction?
The side round perforations on the steel strainer let fluid pass while catching debris that would block the 3 in NPSM inlet during sustained use.
Does the steel body heat up or vibrate noticeably when the pump runs all day?
Steel construction resists heat buildup and the rigid perforated shell dampens vibration during extended operation.
What thread sealant or gasket does the 3 in NPSM connection require?
Standard NPSM pipe sealant or a compatible gasket seals the 3 in NPSM inlet to your suction hose or pipe.
