Description
Overview:
The 1.1/4" BSP Stainless Steel Basket Strainer/Suction Filter is a durable pre-filter for diesel fuel systems. It uses a stainless steel mesh basket to trap rust flakes, scale and other debris before they reach the pump or injection components, helping to reduce wear and unplanned downtime. The basket is housed on a robust plastic BSP threaded fitting for straightforward installation into standard fuel lines and tank outlets. The 1.1/4 inch BSP connection matches common UK fittings used on fuel transfer pumps, bowsers, generators and plant. Built for tough site conditions, the corrosion-resistant mesh provides consistent performance over long service intervals, making it a practical choice for workshop, mobile refuelling and fixed storage applications across construction, agriculture and facilities maintenance.
Key Features:
- 1.1/4" BSP threaded connection for easy integration with UK fuel fittings
- Stainless steel mesh basket for corrosion resistance and long service life in diesel environments
- Robust plastic threaded body helps prevent galling and eases installation and removal
- Designed for suction-side use to protect pumps, meters and downstream filters from coarse debris
- Large basket area for reliable flow with reduced clogging risk
- Reusable design - the stainless basket can be removed, rinsed and refitted
- Helps maintain fuel cleanliness and equipment efficiency, reducing maintenance costs
- Suitable for demanding site conditions and frequent use
- Compact form factor for straightforward retrofits in tight spaces
- Compatible with common diesel transfer, storage and distribution setups
Typical Applications:
Used on the suction side of diesel transfer pumps, fuel bowsers, generator feed lines and bulk tank outlets to screen out contaminants before they enter the system. Common in construction plant, agricultural machinery, workshop fuel rigs and site refuelling kits, where protecting pumps, valves and injectors from particulate contamination is essential for reliability.
