BCT THREADED CARBON STEEL BASKET STRAINERS

The Stayflow BCT Series basket strainers are designed for industrial-grade liquid service in compact systems that require rugged materials and threaded end connections. Constructed from carbon steel with a bolted cover, these strainers offer long service life in applications where corrosion resistance is not the primary concern but pressure and strength are.

The standard 304 stainless steel basket offers reliable particulate removal and is easy to access and clean. Rated for 400psi at 100°F, these strainers are built to handle higher-pressure service than typical iron models. They are available in sizes 1/2" to 3" NPT, and come with a drain/blow-off port and plug.

For a stainless steel version, see the BST Series.

FEATURES:

• Rugged carbon steel body and bolted cover • Pressure loss minimized with an over the top flow path and large open area ratio
• NPT threaded ends, with sizable straining element • Drain connection with plug for easy basket cleaning
• 304 stainless steel basket standard (316 optional) • Basket screen options: 1/32", 1/16", 1/8", or mesh
• Pressure rating: 400psi @ 100°F • Available in 1/2" through 3" sizes
