Common Questions

What mesh screen does it come with?

12-SXL ships with a fixed 20 mesh 300 series stainless steel screen - this body does not offer alternate mesh options.

Does it have a blowoff port?

Yes. The retainer cap is tapped for a blowoff/drain connection with a brass closure plug supplied, so accumulated sediment can be flushed without removing the screen.
