T-H Marine AFD-118 Aerator Filter Dome, Fits Top of 1-1/2 Inch Thru-Hull, 2.7 Inch Diameter

The T-H Marine AFD-118 Aerator Filter Dome is a dome-shaped intake filter that protects livewell and baitwell pumps from debris in the water while maintaining efficient flow. It mounts onto the top of a 1-1/2 inch thru-hull fitting, where its fully curved, perforated surface lets water pass through more efficiently than flat, molded filter designs. The filter top simply turns and locks tight onto a base that mounts to the top of the thru-hull, and the two-piece construction allows the dome to be twisted off for easy cleaning and reinstalled without tools other than the fasteners already used to mount the base to the thru-hull.

Beyond protecting aeration and livewell pumps, the AFD-118 can also be used as a screen over overflow drains to keep them from clogging with debris. It measures 2.7 inches in diameter and is built for straightforward installation behind standard thru-hull fittings, making it a practical accessory for anglers maintaining livewell and baitwell plumbing systems.
