GROCO BS-3 Stainless Steel Basket - 2.6" x 7.3"

The GROCO BS-3 Stainless Steel Basket is a compact marine-grade strainer and debris containment system engineered for professional tactical, marine, and industrial applications where fluid intake protection is mission-critical. Designed for operators and maintenance personnel who demand corrosion resistance and reliable performance in harsh environments, this basket prevents contamination ingress into fuel systems, seawater cooling loops, and hydraulic circuits. The 2.6" x 7.3" profile fits standard through-hull and inline applications where space is limited but protection cannot be compromised.

Constructed from 304-grade stainless steel, the GROCO BS-3 resists saltwater corrosion, galvanic attack, and degradation from fuel additives and hydraulic fluids common in tactical vessel and equipment operations. The basket's fine-mesh design captures particulate matter, sediment, and foreign objects before they reach pumps or injectors, extending system service life and reducing catastrophic failures in the field. The perforated geometry maximizes flow rate while maintaining high filtration efficiency, a critical balance for systems requiring both volume and purity in demanding operational conditions.

Law enforcement marine units, military expeditionary vessels, and private tactical operators benefit most from this component's durability and low maintenance footprint. Installation is straightforward in any Y-strainer body or inline housing compatible with the BS-3 footprint; periodic basket removal and cleaning restore full flow without system disassembly. Weighing only 0.3 lbs, the basket adds negligible burden while delivering professional-grade contamination control suitable for fuel systems, saltwater intakes, and industrial fluid transfer.
