Description

Designed and made in New Zealand, the Scoop Strainer is designed to divert large objects away from water intakes while the vessel is moving. This helps eliminate problems with seaweed/seagrass, sticks or rubbish being sucked into engine intakes and blocking or clogging intake filters. The strainer acts as a course first stage filter that is cleaned by water movement. Manufactured from a glass reinforced nylon composite – High strength and light weight
Compatible with all hull types – Can be used on aluminum, steel, wood or FRP hulls
Immune to corrosion and electrolysis – Long life with no concerns over decreased performance due to corrosion
Chemical resistant – Impervious to diesel, petrol and antifouling paints
UV resistant – These fittings will not break down with ultraviolet light or discolour from the sun
High quality surface finish – Will not discolour with green film as similar bronze fittings do
Paintable – Can be painted with all types of antifouling
Strong construction – Strainer can take bumps and knocks without damage
The Round Strainer is designed for use in stationary applications where there is a risk of sucking in unwanted objects.
Tru-Design Intake Strainers eliminate the corrosion and electrical bonding problems associated with metallic fittings. They can be painted over with anti-foul, and can be faired into the hull without concerns of corrosion.
