GH-4002 Brass foot valve with filter

The brass foot valve with filter is a dual-purpose plumbing essential designed to protect pumping systems from backflow and debris ingress. Installed at the suction end of a pump or pipeline, it combines a check valve mechanism with a stainless steel strainer basket to ensure uninterrupted flow while preventing reverse circulation and blockages. Crafted from corrosion-resistant brass, the valve withstands harsh environments, including agricultural irrigation, industrial water transfer, and residential well systems. Its spring-assisted check valve opens under suction pressure to allow forward flow, then instantly closes via spring tension when the pump stops, maintaining prime and preventing fluid backflow. The removable strainer traps sediments, rust, or particulate matter, safeguarding pumps and downstream equipment from damage. Ideal for ponds, wells, and drainage systems, this valve enhances pump efficiency, extends equipment lifespan, and ensures clean fluid handling in applications where reliability and debris control are critical.
