Y-Type Strainers – Sieve Filters
Y-type filters are the most common and economical type of filter for permanent use, suitable for mounting in horizontal and vertical pipelines.
To avoid problems related to pressure drop, our Y filters have wider bodies and a larger filtration surface.

Regarding the flange faces of our Y strainers, we adjust upon requests: standard flanges (according to ASME B16.5, RF type or RTJ) from 150 LB to 1500 LB in the following materials and sizes:
- Carbon Steel Filter – Cast Carbon Steel (ASME SA216 WCB): 1/2″ to 12″
- Stainless Steel Filter – Cast Stainless Steel (ASME SA351 CF8M): 1/2″ to 10″
Available in Cast L.T.C.S (ASME SA352 LCB/LCC) : ½ » to 10” Class 600LB
We can also customize following your requirements in terms of:
- Pressure ranges, including ASME 600LB to 2500LB and API 10,000
- Additional tests such as MPI control and ferrite rate control, radiography can be performed
- Special finishes by painting, oxygen degreasing can be performed
- Exotic and non-standard material ranges: fiberglass reinforced plastics (GRP)
ACCORDING TO PED STANDARDS 2014/68/EU
NACE CERTIFICATION
ASME B16.5
Below are some examples of major applications of Y-type filters:
- Protection of pumps, rotating machinery
- Protection of meter flow rates
- Valve and regulator protection
- Instrumentation and protection of auxiliary piping equipment

Much more than just a team of experts, we use our passion and skills to make a difference.
