Fuel Gas Strainers
HILCO custom engineers and manufactures a comprehensive line of fuel gas strainers, available in both simplex and duplex configurations to meet a wide range of application requirements.
Fuel Gas Strainer are Used in Power Generation, Oil and Gas Applications, Refineries, and Natural Gas Pipeline Transmission
HILCO’s duplex strainers incorporate a zero-leak transfer valve constructed from wrought materials rather than castings, allowing for superior integrity, as well as the flexibility to weld and modify components to accommodate specific customer requirements. While custom fabrication may initially appear to increase cost, this approach typically results in overall savings by eliminating the need for field modifications or relocation of process connections, ultimately reducing installation time, cost, and space constraints for the end user.
These designs have been continuously manufactured and refined since the late 1940s, reflecting decades of proven performance and engineering evolution.
Available options include ASME Code design, straight-through or same-side process connections, stainless steel construction, internal bypass valves, flanged vents and drains, and a wide variety of instrumentation, including gauges and switches.

HILCO Fuel Gas Strainer Key Features:
Large Connection Sizes With High Pressure Ratings
HILCOs fuel gas strainers can be manufactured with up to 10’’ connection sizes and a rating of 300 PSI MAWP.
Large Range of Filtration
These strainer baskets come in a variety of filtration ratings and sizes and can be mesh lined or made from perforated sheets.
Reliable Performance in Demanding Environments
Built to withstand the pressures and flow conditions commonly found in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems.
HOW IT WORKS
HILCO Filtration Equipment
Since HILCO’s founding in 1915, our filtration equipment has earned a trusted reputation among both Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and end users worldwide. This reputation is built on a long legacy of filtration expertise combined with world-class manufacturing capabilities.
One of HILCO’s defining advantages is our fully integrated design approach: every filtration system features a precisely engineered HILCO vessel paired with a perfectly matched HILCO cartridge, both manufactured at the same facility. This level of control ensures optimal performance, reliability, and consistency across all products.
By manufacturing both vessels and cartridges as a complete system, HILCO has not only established the industry benchmark for filtration performance but has continually raised the standard for more than a century.

Why Does Filtration Performance Matter?
Extended Equipment Life
Protects equipment by ensuring precision filtration across many different applications, fluids, and gases.
Longer Filter Element and Vessel Service Life
Ensures longer run time of key or critical components by providing extend filtration from the elements and long service life of the vessels.
Lower Maintenance Costs
Reduced risk of unplanned shutdowns in critical equipment
Custom Engineered and Standard Products
Wide range of standard products or custom engineered applications.
