At the heart of the strainer is a 304 stainless steel filter basket perforated with 2 mm holes, sized to catch sand, shell fragments, and other small debris while maintaining strong water flow to the pump. The basket sits inside a housing sealed with O-rings on every mating surface, keeping the assembly watertight without relying on gaskets or tie rods that can fail or corrode over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA screw-on cap tops the unit for fast, tool-free maintenance, letting boat owners pull and clean the basket without disassembling the whole strainer. The cap is made from a non-metallic material so it will not corrode or bind shut after repeated saltwater exposure, a common failure point on older metal-capped strainers. Mounting hardware is included, so the strainer is ready to install directly into a thru-hull fitting. This design suits raw water intake lines on boats operating in saltwater or other environments where sand, shells, or debris are a concern, and its screw-on, corrosion-resistant cap makes it a practical upgrade for anyone tired of fighting a stuck strainer lid during routine servicing.\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-755-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBasket Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBasket Hole Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCap Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-metallic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSealing:\u003c\/strong\u003e O-rings on all mating surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e Included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Package Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.6 x 4.9 x 4.8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 742985137592\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size thread does the Groco ARG-755-S use?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco ARG-755-S intake strainer uses a 3\/4 inch NPT thread connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the filter basket made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The basket in the ARG-755-S is made of 304 stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion in saltwater service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow fine is the filtering on this strainer?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ARG-755-S basket has 2 mm holes, small enough to stop sand, shell fragments, and other debris from reaching the pump while still allowing good water flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the strainer cap metal or plastic?\u003c\/strong\u003e The screw-on cap on the ARG-755-S is non-metallic, which prevents the corrosion and binding that can happen with metal caps after repeated saltwater exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ARG-755-S come with mounting hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, mounting hardware is included with the Groco ARG-755-S so it can be installed without sourcing separate fasteners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do you clean or service the basket?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ARG-755-S uses a screw-on cap design, so the basket can be removed for cleaning or inspection without tools or full disassembly of the strainer body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat keeps the strainer watertight?\u003c\/strong\u003e O-rings are fitted on all mating surfaces of the ARG-755-S, sealing the assembly without relying on gaskets or tie rods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is the ARG-755-S?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco ARG-755-S is blue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the ARG-755-S weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco ARG-755-S weighs 4.3 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the package dimensions of the ARG-755-S?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco ARG-755-S ships in a package measuring 9.6 x 4.9 x 4.8 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this strainer suited for saltwater use?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 304 stainless steel basket and non-metallic cap on the ARG-755-S are built to hold up under saltwater intake conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Groco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49031096500443,"sku":"GRO-ARG-755S","price":213.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/51E-ATHYlwL.jpg?v=1785208661","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/groco-intake-strainer-with-filter-basket-arg-755-s-3-4-inch-npt-304-stainless-steel-basket","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
