Pressure Washer Suction/Inlet Strainer — HeavyDuty Water Filter Key benefits Prevents blockages: catches large debris before it reaches your pressure washer, protecting the internal filter and reducing the risk of clogging and damage. Protects the pump and extends machine life: by keeping contaminants out of the intake, it supports smooth operation and reduces wear on internal components. Efficient filtration of large particles: designed specifically to filter out big dirt and debris that commonly cause blockages, ensuring a steady, clean water intake. Stable weighted design: weighted bottom keeps the suction filter submerged and in place so it does not float, delivering reliable filtration during use. Heavyduty performance: built to withstand regular use as a basket strainer or inlet water filter for demanding cleaning tasks. Function and compatibility Function: inlet/suction strainer for water intake; protects the internal filter and pump of pressure washers from large debris.
