Wheeled Loaders, Dumpers
The suction strainer is the first line of defense for the hydraulic pump. Located in the tank, it protects the system from the largest contaminants, such as pieces of seals or large metal filings. If your machine is experiencing a noisy, "whining" hydraulic pump (cavitation), overheating oil, or sudden pump failures, it may be a symptom of a clogged or damaged suction strainer. Its failure leads to the seizure of the hydraulic pump – one of the most expensive failures.

Perfect Fit
Guaranteed hassle-free installation
The accuracy and quality of materials guarantee long and trouble-free use without the need for frequent replacement.
The filter is fully adapted to work with the original JCB hydraulic system, ensuring the integrity and stability of the entire setup.
Regular inspection and replacement of this inexpensive filter is the best way to avoid a hydraulic pump overhaul that can cost thousands.
The suction strainer should be inspected with every hydraulic oil change. Usually, a thorough cleaning is sufficient. Replacement is necessary in case of mechanical damage (torn mesh) or permanent clogging.
Working inside the hydraulic tank requires absolute cleanliness. Ensure that no external contaminants enter the system.
Answer: Unlike paper filters, this mesh strainer is reusable. It only needs to be replaced in case of mechanical damage. However, it should be thoroughly washed and inspected during every oil service.
Question: How often should I inspect this filter?Answer: It is recommended to inspect the suction strainer with every hydraulic oil change, which is about every 1000-2000 operating hours, depending on the machine's service manual and working conditions.
Question: My hydraulic pump is noisy. Is this filter the cause?Answer: Yes, this is one of the most common causes. A clogged suction strainer restricts oil flow to the pump, causing it to run loudly (cavitate) and can lead to its rapid destruction.
