Eaton Model 72 Simplex Basket Strainers

Industrial Cast Simplex Strainers

Eaton Model 72 simplex strainers have been providing reliable service for nearly 100 years. What sets the Model 72 apart is its thoughtful design: oversized baskets provide more than 6 times the cross-sectional pipe area. No tools are required for basket access thanks to the quick-opening cover. The swing yoke cover works even in dirty, hard-to-reach installations. Each strainer includes a threaded drain plug.

Heavy wall thickness and precision-machined basket seats create a rugged body with a tight-sealing chamber. These strainers usually ship from stock.
