Wagner Style 1-5/16 in Inlet Strainer 5006536

This inlet strainer has the 1-5/16 inch thread used on the Wagner PS series pumps, and it replaces the Wagner part 0508738. It filters the paint as it is drawn into the pump, protecting the inlet valve and packings from lumps and debris. It is a direct fit for the Wagner pumps listed, so it is a simple replacement when the original strainer wears out.

What You Need To Complete The Job

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Wagner pumps take this strainer?

The listing names the Wagner PS27, PS30, PS31 and PS34 pumps, plus the PS3.25, PS3.29, PS3.31 and PS3.34 models. It replaces the original Wagner 0508738 part, so it is a straight swap on those machines.

How do I know my inlet strainer is blocked?

A blocked inlet strainer shows up as a surging or starved spray pattern, and you may hear the pump labouring. Check the mesh for paint build up or damage whenever you flush the sprayer, and clean or replace it as needed.

Is this the same as the 3/4 inch UNF strainer?

No. This is the 1-5/16 inch Wagner thread version for the PS series pumps, while the 3/4 inch UNF strainer fits the Graco 390, 395, 490, 495 and Ultra Max 695 and 795 pumps. Match the thread to your machine.

How do I clean the strainer?

Remove it from the pump inlet and rinse the mesh with the correct cleaning solvent for the paint you used. Check for tears or heavy build up and replace the strainer if the mesh is damaged.

What does the 5006536 number refer to?

It is the part reference for this inlet strainer, used to identify it alongside the Wagner part it replaces, 0508738. Quote either number when ordering to get the correct fit for the Wagner PS series pumps.
