Shurflo by Pentair 1" Raw Water Strainer - 50 Mesh Screen

The Shurflo by Pentair 1" Raw Water Strainer with 50 mesh screen is an essential component for marine engine protection, designed for serious boaters who want to safeguard their vessels before heading out on the water. This strainer is particularly useful for cabin cruisers, fishing boats, and any vessel equipped with a raw water cooling system.

Constructed by Pentair's trusted Shurflo division, this raw water strainer features a 50 mesh screen that effectively captures particles down to approximately 300 microns. This level of filtration is crucial for preventing debris, algae, and sediment from clogging engine cooling passages, thereby reducing the risk of costly damage. The transparent bowl housing allows for easy visual inspection of filter saturation, ensuring timely maintenance without unnecessary downtime.

Ideal for operators navigating shallow, murky, or weed-laden waters, this strainer is compatible with both freshwater and saltwater cooling loops. Anglers working in tidal flats, inland lakes, and coastal areas will find its reliable sediment rejection particularly beneficial. Installation is straightforward for any boat equipped with a through-hull intake line, making it a practical choice for enhancing engine performance.
