Product Questions

What type of threads are on the 3/4" Thread Bulkhead Strainer? Would a schedule 40 FIPT coupling work?
Question by: Rodney on Dec 4, 2021, 5:29 PM
The threads on the bulkhead strainers are NPT so they are a tapered thread meant to form a seal with just the threads. IPT is a straight thread that forms a seal with a gasket. They will thread together but getting a good seal between the threads may be problematic.

I need a 3/4 threaded strainer. Can you tell me how long the strainer is though? I am drilling the back of my tank and am worried about the amount of space between my glass and weird. Thanks
Question by: Joe on Dec 4, 2017, 11:40 AM
Hi there,
The 3/4 strainer threaded strainer sticks out about 1 3/4" from the base of the threads. Another option if you are worried about clearance is the low profile strainer here:

My durso tube where I need to attach the strainer is a 1 1/4 PVC slip 90. I don't see a 1 1/4 strainer. Would the 1" slip fit in the 1 1/4 90?
Question by: Erich on Jun 4, 2016, 2:26 PM
Great question!
unfortunately we do not carry the 1.25" sized strainer currently. The 1" would be too small and simply fall into the elbow with out being secure. You can attempt to reduce the elbow with a bushing or other reducer to use 1" however.

Need your help, I want to put strainer on my herbi overflow and I was looking at the low profile strainer, my main return is a 1 1/2 pvc drain, is there a was I can put in my drain or do I have to put a different make, please help Thanks.
Question by: Edward on Jan 27, 2016, 4:51 PM
Great question!
The over flow strainers are a spigot or street fitting meaning they are the same outside diameter as a piece of pipe. To attach to a bulkhead it can be placed directly in the bulkhead, to attach to a piece of pipe you will need a slip x slip coupler. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!

I have a 2 inch bulkhead without threads, need a strainer, what do I need?

Hi Rick,
If you don't have threads in your bulkhead then you would want a slip trainer. Also, keep in mind that the sizes listed are nominal plumbing sizes, so a 2" strainer is for a 2" bulkhead, intended for 2" pipe, etc, but not a literal measurement of 2". Just make sure to double check the nominal size of the actual plumbing and it will fit just fine.
