Lever Lock Strainers

Lever Lock Strainers

Keep your fluid systems clean and free from unwanted debris with our range of lever lock strainers. Designed for robust performance and easy maintenance, these fittings are essential when you need reliable protection against particulates in hose and pump setups.

What Are Lever Lock Strainers?

Lever lock strainers are inline filters that attach via a lever-clamping mechanism, inserting a mesh or perforated element into the fluid path. The lever lock coupling makes them quick and straightforward to install, remove and inspect - no fiddly threading or special tools required.

Why Choose Our Lever Lock Strainers?

  • Efficient debris removal: The strainers trap particles that could otherwise damage pumps, valves or downstream components.
  • Durable construction: Made from galvanised steel for corrosion resistance and longevity.
  • Versatile options: Available in both general purpose (G.P.) and sewage types, plus foot valve strainer versions (for suction lines) to suit different applications.
  • Simple maintenance: The lever lock design enables fast access for cleaning or replacement.
  • Compact and robust: Built to withstand industrial conditions while occupying minimal space.

Applications & Use Cases

Lever lock strainers are commonly used in:

  • Water transfer, irrigation and pumping systems
  • Sewage and wastewater handling
  • Industrial fluid delivery systems
  • Suction lines on pumps (using foot valve strainers)
  • Any situation where particulate contamination must be prevented

Key Specifications & Tips

  • Material: Galvanised steel ensures resistance to rust and general wear and tear (as noted on the product page).
  • Type selection: Choose between general purpose or sewage strainers depending on the fluid and solids you expect.
  • Mesh / perforation size: Select the appropriate mesh size to balance filtration efficiency against flow restriction.
  • Installation: Ensure proper orientation and sealing when installing; lever lock couplings must be tightly engaged.
  • Maintenance: Periodically remove and clean the screen to preserve flow capacity and prevent clogging.
