Midland Flanged Ductile Iron Y Strainers

Flanged ductile iron Y strainers are designed to protect pumps, valves, meters, regulators, and other downstream equipment by filtering dirt, scale, and debris from flowing media. Durable ductile iron construction with stainless steel mesh and flanged end connections provide dependable service in larger commercial, municipal, and industrial piping systems.

Available in nominal sizes from 2 inches through 12 inches, these strainers feature a removable stainless steel screen that allows for routine inspection, cleaning, and maintenance without replacing the complete valve body.

Key Features

• Heavy-duty ductile iron body construction
• Mesh made of 304 Stainless Steel
• Flanged end connections for secure pipeline installation
• Y-pattern design efficiently captures dirt, scale, and debris
• Removable stainless steel strainer screen
• Helps protect pumps, valves, meters, and regulators
• Simplifies routine screen inspection and cleaning
• Available in nominal sizes from 2 in through 12 in

Construction Details

The ductile iron body provides strength and durability for demanding piping applications, while the flanged ends create a rigid and secure connection to adjoining system components.

A removable stainless steel screen captures suspended debris before it reaches downstream equipment and can be accessed for cleaning or inspection during scheduled maintenance.

The Y-pattern body directs collected material away from the main flow path, helping maintain system performance between cleaning intervals.

Important Notes

Inspect and clean the stainless steel screen periodically to maintain proper flow and filtration performance.

Verify flange dimensions, pressure requirements, temperature limits, and media compatibility before installation.

Install with the flow direction matching the arrow cast into the body and follow the manufacturer's recommended flange-bolting and installation procedures.
