Netafim 1-1/2" MPT - Super Disc Filter for Lawn & Garden Irrigation

Product Overview

Compromised filtration is the fastest way to trigger a total system shutdown or permanent damage to your drip emitters and irrigation valves. When organic matter or fine particulates bypass a substandard filter, the resulting clogs lead to uneven watering, localized turf stress, and the high cost of manual flush-outs during the peak of the summer heat. With seasonal demand surging and supply chains remaining unpredictable, waiting for a failure to happen is a risk to your reputation and your schedule. Securing high quality filtration now ensures that your installs remain operational through the most demanding months while keeping your team on new projects rather than unprofitable service calls.

The Netafim Super Disc Filter offers a significant technical advantage over standard screen filters by utilizing a deep three-dimensional filtration process. While screens only catch debris on a single surface, these grooved discs trap sediments throughout the entire depth of the disc stack, providing superior dirt-holding capacity and longer intervals between cleanings. This translates to reduced labor for your crews and lower maintenance costs for your clients. By stocking these robust units, you provide a professional grade solution that outperforms light duty alternatives, giving your business a competitive edge through system reliability and longevity.

Installation Notes

Install the filter downstream of the master valve but upstream of the zone valves to protect the entire system. Ensure the flow arrow on the housing matches the water direction and leave enough clearance below the filter body to remove the cap and stack for cleaning. Use high quality thread sealant on the MPT connections to prevent leaks and always flush the main line before installing the disc stack to remove heavy construction debris.
