About Y-Strainers
Y-strainers protect compressed-air piping and connected components by capturing scale, sealant, rust, and other debris before it reaches valves, regulators, drains, or controls. The angled screen chamber keeps collected material away from the main flow path and allows access for cleaning.
Choose a strainer by connection size, pressure and temperature rating, body material, screen mesh, and media compatibility. Install it in the correct flow direction and allow clearance to remove and service the screen without disturbing surrounding piping.
