The Vetus FTR140 is a compact, marine-rated cooling water strainer that protects pumps and engines by catching debris before it reaches your system.
Designed for above-waterline installation, it features a clear, toolless lid so you can inspect and clean in seconds while alongside or on the mooring.
Durable PP-GF and HDPE construction resists corrosion in saltwater, making it a dependable fit for sailing in Ireland and regular runs on the Atlantic or Irish Sea.
Choose the 13 mm, 16 mm or 19 mm variant to match your hose for trouble-free plumbing and reliable raw-water flow in tight engine bays and heads compartments.
A great upgrade for small engines, gensets and shower drain pumps needing robust, low-maintenance filtration.
