GROCO BS-1 Stainless Steel Basket - 1.9" x 5.2"

The GROCO BS-1 Stainless Steel Basket is a precision marine strainer designed for serious boaters and anglers who require reliable through-hull protection while on the water. This compact intake basket effectively prevents debris, seaweed, and sediment from clogging raw water cooling systems, which is essential for maintaining engine performance far from shore.

Constructed from marine-grade stainless steel, the BS-1 is built to resist corrosion in both freshwater and harsh saltwater environments. The 1.9-inch diameter opening and 5.2-inch length provide a compact yet functional design that fits standard GROCO through-hull fittings without extensive modifications. Its basket design captures particles while allowing for consistent water flow, crucial for engine cooling efficiency.

Anglers operating coastal or offshore boats, cruisers with inboard engines, and anyone relying on raw water cooling systems will find significant value in the BS-1 as a preventive maintenance solution. Installation is straightforward on existing GROCO strainer housings, and its lightweight design ensures minimal burden on the system. Regular inspection and cleaning of this basket will extend the life of your cooling system.
