Description

The Hayward 40-Mesh Stainless Steel Screen for ¾″ Y-Strainer (SKU: YS1707540) delivers durable protection in systems that face moderate debris loads. Crafted with a PVC structural body, stainless steel mesh, and an FPM seal, this screen stands up to chemical exposure, cleaning, and everyday wear. Its 40-mesh aperture size offers a good balance—capturing leaves, algae, sand, and mid-sized particulate matter while maintaining flow. Designed to fit the Hayward YS Series ¾″ strainer housings, it helps protect pumps, filters, and downstream equipment from damage.

Pro Tip

Check this screen during routine maintenance—rinse off debris or soak if the buildup is stubborn. Keep finer mesh versions (e.g., 60-mesh or 80-mesh) to swap in during periods of clearer water or when small particles are more of an issue. Always inspect the O-ring seal for wear when reinstalling to ensure no bypass.

Installation Tips
