Perko 1-1/2" IPS Intake Strainer Bronze Made in the USA

The Perko 1-1/2" IPS Intake Strainer Bronze is purpose-built for marine and fluid transfer applications requiring reliable debris filtration and corrosion resistance. Designed for professionals in maritime operations, equipment maintenance, and industrial fluid systems, this intake strainer protects downstream components from sediment, scale, and foreign material that can damage pumps and valves. The bronze construction and 316 stainless steel internals make it ideal for saltwater and harsh-environment deployments where standard materials fail.

Built with a 316 stainless steel strainer basket, this Perko intake strainer minimizes electrolysis and galvanic corrosion—critical factors in extended-duration marine service. The 1-1/2" IPS (Iron Pipe Size) connection accommodates standard plumbing and circulation systems with no adapter complexity. Integrated mounting lugs cast into both sides provide universal, tool-free mounting flexibility, while four outside tie rods ensure structural integrity under pressure cycling. The open-basket design permits rapid field cleaning without disassembly, reducing downtime during operations and maintenance cycles.

Operators managing seawater systems, emergency response equipment, and mobile fluid transport benefit most from this strainer's durability and corrosion longevity. Installation is straightforward on any 1-1/2" IPS intake line, with no modifications required to existing piping. Weighing 13.95 lbs and measuring 8 x 7 x 14 inches, it integrates into confined equipment spaces while maintaining full flow capacity. For tactical teams, naval operations, and industrial maintenance crews relying on uninterrupted system performance in demanding environments, the Perko 1-1/2" IPS Intake Strainer Bronze delivers proven reliability—made in the USA for standards-driven procurement.
