GROCO BS-23 Stainless Steel Basket f/SS-1000 & BVS-100

The GROCO BS-23 Stainless Steel Basket is a purpose-built strainer component designed for marine raw water intake systems, specifically engineered as a direct replacement for GROCO SS-1000 and BVS-100 seacock assemblies. This product is essential for boaters who prioritize engine cooling system reliability, especially when navigating offshore or coastal waters.

Manufactured from 316 stainless steel, the BS-23 resists corrosion in saltwater environments where standard steel would fail within a season. Its compact design of 3 x 3 x 10 inches maximizes surface area for debris capture while maintaining low flow restriction, ensuring that water moves freely through your cooling loop. The fine weave pattern effectively traps silt and small particles without causing pressure drops that could strain your raw water pump.

This replacement basket is particularly beneficial for boaters operating in shallow, murky, or debris-laden waters where original baskets may wear out or become permanently fouled. Whether you're fishing tidal rivers, anchoring in sandy bays, or cruising areas known for marine growth, the GROCO BS-23 is designed to keep your engine cooling system running smoothly and efficiently.
