Replacement clear cylinders for Groco - Perko strainer
Perko, Raw Water Intake Strainer Transparent Cylinder for 500 Series
I just looked and the prices are outrageous? Mine also seems bigger than 3 inches.
Mine has a single central nut that holds the cover cap down. . The plastic cylinder does not leak, but is badly crazed all over.
Any ideas on a clear plastic pipe?
I was thinking, it looks a lot like this Groco strainer.
Mine has a large acorn nut holds on the cap.

Says is Lucite which is Acrylic tube, and is cheap by the foot, but 6 foot minimums makes it too expensive for me.

Something like a table saw can be used to cut this to get a straight end cut.
