The strainer uses a non-metallic, one-piece molded sight glass cap that magnifies the internal view of the basket, letting an owner check for blockage at a glance without disassembling the housing. Construction eliminates the tie rods and gaskets found on older strainer designs, relying instead on a molded cap that seals against the bronze body with O-rings on all joining surfaces for a reliable, leak-resistant seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside, an improved plastic poly filter basket traps debris while allowing full water flow to the pump. The basket lifts out for cleaning through a tool-free mounting system, so routine maintenance does not require wrenches or special hardware. An improved drain plug makes winterizing and draining the strainer body straightforward. Bonding connections are provided on both sides of the housing, allowing the strainer to be tied into the boat's bonding system for corrosion protection. This strainer is intended for above-ground, manually operated installation in raw water intake lines feeding engines, generators, air conditioning, or washdown pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Groco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e ARG-1210-P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBasket Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Above Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Source:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.19375 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 742985137134\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size intake line does the Groco ARG-1210-P fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ARG-1210-P is sized for 1-1\/4 inch raw water intake plumbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the basket be inspected without opening the strainer?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the ARG-1210-P uses a one-piece molded sight glass cap that magnifies the view inside, so the basket can be checked for debris without removing the housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the filter basket made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ARG-1210-P uses a plastic poly filter basket designed to trap debris while maintaining water flow to the pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need tools to remove the basket for cleaning?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the ARG-1210-P mounting system is designed for tool-free removal of the basket for routine cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the strainer body bronze or plastic?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ARG-1210-P has a bronze body with a plastic basket and a non-metallic sight glass cap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this strainer have bonding connections?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the ARG-1210-P has bonding connections on both sides of the housing for tying into the boat's bonding system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the strainer sealed?\u003c\/strong\u003e O-rings seal all joining surfaces on the ARG-1210-P, and the design eliminates the tie rods and gaskets used on older strainer styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ARG-1210-P have a drain plug?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, it includes an improved drain plug for draining the strainer body during maintenance or winterizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is this strainer used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ARG-1210-P is a raw water intake strainer used to filter debris from water drawn into a boat's engine, generator, air conditioning, or washdown pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the ARG-1210-P weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco ARG-1210-P weighs 6.19375 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this strainer for above-ground or below-waterline mounting?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ARG-1210-P is designed for above-ground installation in the raw water intake line.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Groco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49031095976155,"sku":"GRO-ARG-1210P","price":326.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/41mQ_l4vBlL.jpg?v=1785208656","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/groco-arg-1210-p-bronze-1-1-4-inch-raw-water-intake-strainer-with-plastic-basket","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
