A suction strainer is used to prevent larger debris from entering your pump during drafting operations. It allows for efficient water drafting from natural sources or tanks while protecting your pump and ensuring high water flow.

Low-level strainers are specifically designed for situations where water levels are low. They allow you to collect water efficiently, even when traditional drafting methods fail. The included float enables use in deeper water, and it can be removed via a pull pin when not needed.

The low-level strainer with jet siphon has a friction loss of just 0.5 PSI at 1500 GPM. This helps reduce the strain on your pump and minimizes the risk of air vortexes forming, which maximizes your drafting capacity.

Yes, our strainers are designed with clog-resistant stainless-steel screens, allowing for high water flow while minimizing interruptions due to blockages. This ensures smooth and continuous drafting, even in debris-filled water sources.

The jet siphon on the low-level strainer allows for tank transfer and quick priming. It pivots freely to avoid kinks in the hose, providing operational flexibility and efficiency during water collection.

Jumbo barrel strainers are constructed with impact-resistant polymer, minimizing the risk of dents or damage if dropped. The polymer material also resists corrosion, even in contaminated or brackish water sources, ensuring long-term durability.

Our strainers feature hard anodized aluminum couplings, which are highly resistant to corrosion. The couplings rotate smoothly on a polymer bearing ring, making them easy to connect and disconnect during operations.

The low-level strainer features an oversized, sealed ball pivot with a 45-degree range of motion. This allows the strainer to move with the hose, improving flexibility and making setup easier in various drafting situations.

Both the low-level and jumbo barrel strainers are designed for easy handling. The low-level strainer includes a built-in handle for quick transport, and the jumbo barrel strainer features an oversized loop for easy tie-off, making both models user-friendly during firefighting operations.

The jumbo barrel strainer provides 48 square inches of flow area, ensuring maximum flow capability during water drafting operations, which makes it ideal for large-scale firefighting efforts.
