Description

WCB Strainer Flanged – Heavy Duty Cast Steel Filtration Solution

Krishna Industries is a Prominent Supplier, Wholesaler, Exporter, Distributor and Trader of
WCB Strainer Flanged in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. We specialize in supplying
industrial-grade strainers for Indian EPC contractors, project buyers, OEM manufacturers,
and maintenance contractors across power plants, oil & gas, chemical processing,
pharmaceutical, textile, water treatment, and infrastructure sectors.

A WCB Strainer Flanged is a critical line protection device used to remove
solid contaminants from pipelines. Manufactured from high-strength
ASTM A216 WCB cast steel, these strainers are ideal for high-pressure and
high-temperature service conditions. They are widely installed before
control valves, pump suction lines, steam traps,
flow meters, and pressure reducing valves to ensure
smooth and uninterrupted plant operation.

In Indian industrial applications, protection of equipment such as
Gate Valve Class 150, Globe Valve 150#,
Ball Valve Flanged, Butterfly Valve PN10,
and Steam Line Isolation Valves is essential.
A WCB flanged strainer acts as the first line of defense by trapping debris,
weld slag, rust particles, scale, and other foreign matter before they can
damage downstream equipment.

At Krishna Industries, we focus 100% on Indian buyers who demand
quality material, correct pressure ratings, proper flange drilling,
and timely dispatch for projects and shutdown requirements.

What is WCB Strainer Flanged?

A WCB Strainer Flanged is typically a Y-type or T-type strainer made from
cast carbon steel (WCB grade) with flanged end connections as per
ASME B16.5 / ANSI standards. Inside the body, a perforated stainless steel
screen filters solid particles from the flowing medium. The flanged ends
allow easy installation between pipeline flanges using standard gaskets and bolts.

These strainers are suitable for:

• Steam lines
• Water pipelines
• Thermic fluid systems
• Oil & fuel transfer lines
• Compressed air systems
• Process chemical pipelines

Why WCB Material is Preferred in Indian Industry?

ASTM A216 WCB cast steel is widely accepted in Indian industrial sectors because:

• High tensile strength
• Excellent resistance to pressure
• Suitable for high-temperature steam
• Cost-effective compared to alloy steel
• Easy availability for replacement and maintenance

For industries such as thermal power plants, sugar mills, chemical plants,
refineries, and EPC projects, WCB offers durability and compliance with
Indian and international standards.
