Plate Strainers & Restricted Orifice Plates

Plate Strainers

Our plate strainers are a simple yet effective method of protecting pumps, valves, meters, and other downstream equipment. Installed between pipeline flanges, they provide a flat straining surface to capture debris, rust, and scale before it can cause damage. Available in perforated plate, wire mesh-lined, or custom material options, our plate strainers can be manufactured to suit a wide range of pressures, temperatures, and flow conditions. Designed for easy installation and removal, they are an excellent choice for both temporary start-up protection and long-term filtration applications.

Restricted Orifice Plates

We also manufacture restricted orifice plates, engineered to precisely control or reduce fluid flow within a piping system. Commonly used for flow balancing, pressure reduction, and noise control, our orifice plates are custom-machined to meet exact specifications. Available in stainless steel, mild steel, and specialty alloys, these plates are built to withstand demanding operating conditions while ensuring consistent and predictable flow performance.

Custom Manufacturing Solutions

At Monarch General Engineering, every plate strainer and orifice plate is manufactured in-house at our Brendale workshop, giving us full control over quality and accuracy. Whether you need a one-off custom component or a production run for larger projects, we deliver products that are fit for purpose, reliable, and long-lasting.

By combining skilled fabrication, machining expertise, and strict quality control, we ensure that our plate strainers and restricted orifice plates provide dependable performance across industries including oil & gas, petrochemical, water treatment, mining, and general engineering.
