Fuel strainer material
Afternoon all.
Does anyone know where I might be able to source some of that material that is used on the pickup for in-tank fuel pumps at all? It is usually white
when new, and is about 1mm thick, and is sort of spotty/dimpled and usually heat sealed in the shape of a bag? It is NOT the nylon mesh type stuff,
but is more like a felt type material...
I'm after some for another application, but can't find anywhere that can supply it not already formed into fuel strainers for in tank
pumps...
Any ideas anyone?

I don't know what you are referring to as linky does not work for me.
Brass mesh and soldering iron is all you need to make a strainer to whatever size and shape you want, within reason - that is how I did it.
now getting hold of the brass mesh, that is another story.

The material I am after is NOT a mesh type of any sort. It is like a felt type fabric. It is more of a filter than a strainer, and apparently it is
commonly used on the in-tank fuel pumps...
