1-1/4″ Maestrini Seawater Strainer – Bottom to Side (Remote Mount)

The 1-1/4″ Maestrini High Capacity Remote Mount Water Strainer is a robust and efficient marine filtration unit designed to safeguard your vessel’s raw water cooling system. Manufactured in Italy by Maestrini, a trusted name in marine hardware, this strainer is engineered to deliver long-lasting performance, easy maintenance, and reliable seawater filtration under demanding marine conditions.

Constructed from dezincification-resistant brass (DZR), the body of this strainer offers excellent resistance against saltwater corrosion and prolonged wear. DZR brass is specifically chosen for its durability in harsh seawater environments, making this strainer an ideal choice for yachts, fishing boats, and other marine applications where reliability is essential.

This model is equipped with 1-1/4″ BSP female ports, with the inlet at the bottom and the outlet positioned on the side of the unit. This layout provides installation flexibility, particularly in tight engine rooms where pipe routing can be challenging. The remote mount design allows it to be securely fixed using the integral mounting lugs on its base, ensuring stability and ease of access.

The strainer is fitted with a polycarbonate transparent lid complete with an O-ring seal to ensure a watertight closure. This transparent top makes it easy to visually inspect the water flow and debris levels without dismantling the strainer. For cleaning, the polypropylene filter basket can be quickly accessed by simply removing the four screws on the lid. This design ensures hassle-free maintenance, allowing operators to service the filter without specialist tools.

Additionally, the unit is supplied with a drain plug for convenient emptying, further simplifying routine care and system management. The combination of durable materials and user-friendly features makes this water strainer a reliable solution for protecting engines, generators, and air conditioning systems from debris, sand, and marine growth.
