Description

The Hayward ½″ YS Series Y-Strainer Screen, 40 Mesh Stainless Steel (SKU: YS1705040), offers a durable solution for systems facing mid-level particulate loads. The 40-mesh screen traps moderate debris like algae clumps, sand, and grit while allowing adequate flow. Its stainless steel mesh stays intact through repeated cleanings, and the PVC body resists environmental stress. The FPM seal prevents bypass, providing reliable filtration in pool, spa, irrigation, or plumbing systems where both durability and filtration are needed.

Pro Tip

Rinse the screen before the buildup causes a drop in flow. Store finer mesh screens (60- or 80-mesh) for when water clarity demands it. Always inspect the sealing surfaces and O-ring during replacement to maintain full sealing and prevent leaks.

Installation Tips

Always shut off the water system pressure before removing or inserting the screen. Clean the interior of the strainer body to prevent misalignment or damage. Handle stainless steel mesh gently—avoid bending or denting, which can reduce filtration effectiveness.
