Tru-Design Intake Strainers

Tru-Design Intake Strainers are designed and Made in New Zealand, the Scoop Strainer is designed to divert large objects away from water intakes while the vessel is moving. This helps eliminate problems with seaweed/seagrass, sticks or rubbish being sucked into engine intakes and blocking or clogging intake filters.

The strainer acts as a coarse first stage filter that is cleaned by water movement. The Round Strainer is designed for use in stationary applications where there is a risk of sucking in unwanted objects. Tru-Design Intake Strainers eliminate the corrosion and electrical bonding problems associated with metallic fittings. They can be painted over with anti-foul and can be faired into the Hull without concerns of corrosion.
