Pipeline protectors, strainers are inline filtration devices that remove debris—such as scale, rust, and weld slag—to safeguard sensitive downstream equipment like pumps, valves, and meters. Y-Type strainers are used in line-size pipelines for smaller particles, while Basket Strainers, with their larger dirt-holding capacity, are ideal for mainline or pump suction protection. Constructed from cast iron, carbon steel, or stainless steel with perforated or mesh screens, they are vital for maintaining system efficiency and preventing costly equipment damage.
