Bucket / Basket Strainers (Mud Box)

Blue cast iron bucket basket strainers, used to trap debris and protect pumps and equipment.

A Bucket or Basket Strainer, also called a Mud Box, is a pipeline filter that uses a large, removable basket-shaped screen to catch dirt, scale, and debris from the flow. Its bigger basket holds far more debris than a Y strainer, so it suits systems with heavy contamination and needs cleaning less often.

Industrial Applications: Oil & Gas, Power Plants, Water Treatment, Marine, Petrochemical
