OEM Strainer Body for the Pentair JWP Series Above Ground Pump
The Pentair C153-53P1Z is the OEM replacement 5-inch strainer body for the JWP Series Above Ground Pool and Spa Pump Package. If your pump's suction trap housing is cracked, warped, or no longer sealing correctly, this is the direct replacement component.
What It Does
The strainer body forms the outer housing of the pump's suction trap assembly, enclosing the strainer basket and maintaining the sealed wet end needed for prime. A damaged or deteriorated strainer body allows air ingestion, loss of prime, and reduced flow — replacing it restores the pump's suction integrity.

Pro Tip
Before ordering, confirm the part number stamped or molded on your existing strainer body matches C153-53P1Z. When replacing the strainer body, inspect the lid O-ring and strainer basket at the same time — replacing worn components together avoids a second service call.
