Value Collection 9739023810JP Strainer Screen Mesh 20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 9739023810JP is a stainless steel valve strainer screen designed to capture debris and particulates before they reach downstream components in piping systems. Built to a Mesh Size 20 specification, this screen provides consistent filtration across a range of low-flow plumbing and instrumentation applications. At 0.75 inches in length and 0.5 inches in width and height, the screen fits compactly into Y-strainer bodies. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of replacement screen as part of routine strainer service to restore proper system flow and protection.

This strainer screen is suited for use with brass Y-strainer bodies in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and instrumentation lines. Compatible fitting sizes include 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch configurations. The stainless steel construction holds up well in wet service conditions where corrosion resistance is a priority. Technicians typically replace these screens during scheduled maintenance intervals or when pressure drop across the strainer indicates clogging.

Installation Notes

Installation and replacement of valve strainer screens is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Before servicing the strainer, shut off the upstream isolation valve and relieve system pressure completely. Remove the strainer cap or plug according to the Y-strainer body design, extract the old screen, inspect the housing for debris or damage, and seat the new screen securely before reassembling. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements for the system type being serviced.
