KSJED Threaded Inlet Strainer Kit for Stock Tank Pools — Intex Filter Compatibility

Meet the KSJED Threaded Inlet Strainer Kit, a practical upgrade for stock tank pools and compatible Intex filter pumps. This kit is designed to be a straightforward solution for filtering out leaves, toys, and other larger debris before they reach the pump, helping maintain water clarity and pump performance.

Built with durable materials, the inlet strainer is injection-molded from high-density rubber and sturdy plastic. The flexible rubber washer creates a reliable seal, while the low-profile strainer nut is designed to fit thicker pool walls. When paired with the recommended 1-1/2 inch hoses, it ensures a snug connection that can withstand routine pool use.

What you get

• Inlet strainer unit with durable rubber washer
• Low-profile strainer nut compatible with thicker stock tanks
• Filter screen to stop large debris from entering the pump
• Connection hardware for 1-1/2 inch hose setups
• Alignment area guidance for proper installation

Key benefits you might notice during use include:

• Cleaner water by filtering out leaves, toys, and other bulky items before filtration
• Longer pump life by reducing strain from large debris
• Quiet operation thanks to the secure seal and stable connection
• Versatile compatibility with Intex filter pumps that use 1-1/2 inch hoses

How to install (summary): prepare a flat 4 inch by 4 inch area on the pool side, drill a 2-3/4 inch hole, apply a bead of silicone where needed, insert the threaded connector and washer from inside the tank, then tighten. Connect your plunger valves and hoses as applicable. If your tank has vertical ribs, place silicone along the washer-facing surface to ensure a good seal.

Notes for best results:

• Ensure your pump has 1-1/2 inch threaded hoses; if not, consider an adapter for 1-1/4 inch hoses
• Make sure the installation area is free of ribs for a clean fit

This KSJED kit provides a practical upgrade built for busy pool days, helping you keep your water clearer and your pump happier. It’s a potential improvement, not a guarantee, and results may vary with pool size, usage, and maintenance habits.
