Description
These types of strainers are named after their shape and normally used for course filtration but with large filtration area can be used with fine mesh also. Body of Y strainer is normally of cast iron, cast carbon steel or stainless steel in various material grades with flanged end, threaded end, butt weld end and socket weld type end connection. Fabricated Y strainers are also available with high filtration area and less pressure drop.
