A mesh-lined strainer basket combines a rigid perforated body with a finer wire mesh filtering layer. The body carries the structural and handling loads; the mesh establishes the separation opening. Kaifil reviews both layers together with the flange, base, handle and housing interface.

| Basket body | Perforated or fabricated basket support | — |
| Seating interface | Rim, flange, base and handle matched to the housing | — |
| Material | Stainless steel grade or specified alloy agreed for the application | Confirm compatibility of media, supports, connections and joining materials with the process and cleaning chemistry. |
| Dimensions | Manufactured to the approved drawing and agreed tolerances | Specify basket diameter, depth, rim or flange dimensions, seat, base shape and handle clearance. State whether flow is inside-out or outside-in and provide the housing drawing. |
| Service conditions | Process medium, temperature, flow and differential pressure to be specified | Limits depend on the complete construction; no universal pressure or temperature rating applies. |
| Inspection | Dimensions, media identification, joints and visual condition | Special tests require an agreed method, sampling plan and acceptance criteria. |
| Order basis | Quantity, sample stage, documentation and packing agreed at quotation | Lead time and minimum order quantity follow the confirmed material and manufacturing scope. |

Materials: Stainless steel grade or specified alloy agreed for the application
The mesh lining provides finer separation than the supporting basket alone. The body carries handling and differential-pressure loads while the liner needs continuous attachment at seams, base and rim to control bypass. A lifting handle is part of the installation arrangement, not an assumed load-rated accessory.
Specify basket diameter, depth, rim or flange dimensions, seat, base shape and handle clearance. State whether flow is inside-out or outside-in and provide the housing drawing.
Confirm debris type, expected loading, cleaning access and allowable differential pressure. The equipment needs a defined maintenance method; a metal basket is not automatically suitable for unlimited reuse.
Confirm the drawing revision, material designation, critical dimensions and inspection documents before manufacture. Agree how media identity, joints, edges and cleanliness will be checked. If a sample or first article is required, define the approval step before repeat production. Flow, pressure or retention testing must include the test method and acceptance limit; appearance alone does not verify filtration performance.
Removable strainers upstream of equipment where debris interception is required.
Mesh-lined baskets for defined liquid chemistry and particle-retention requirements.
Match the seat, depth and lifting clearance to an existing strainer housing.
Include these details when discussing your requirements.
No. The finer liner changes pressure loss and load distribution. Attachment, flow direction and support must be reviewed to prevent deformation and bypass.
Provide the process fluid or gas, temperature, cleaning chemicals and corrosion exposure. The grade must suit every wetted component, including supports, joints and seals. Final compatibility is confirmed against the actual service conditions.
Specify basket diameter, depth, rim or flange dimensions, seat, base shape and handle clearance. State whether flow is inside-out or outside-in and provide the housing drawing. Also include material, operating conditions, required quantity and any sample or inspection-document requirements.
Material records, dimensional inspection and other agreed documents can be included in the order scope. Specify traceability, document type and any special testing before quotation.
