Upper basket 1 inch for the distribution pipe mounted in the head of the treatment station. A protective element placed inside the tank with the filtration medium, which limits the passage of medium particles to the controller. Version for gluing onto standardized profiles of the head, does not fit heads with hooks (teeth).
The 1 inch top basket for the treatment station head is an important protective component mounted on the distribution tube inside the tank filled with filter media. The glued version has been designed for installation on standardized head profiles and helps limit the passage of media particles into the controller. It is a practical solution for water softeners, iron removal filters, manganese removal filters, carbon columns, and other water treatment systems where safe flow and protection of the head’s working components are essential.

The top basket for a 1 inch distribution tube is used in filtration and water treatment systems as a protective element that shields the head from contaminants coming from the media bed. It is installed on the lower part of the head (controller), inside the tank filled with filtration or treatment media.
Its function is to retain fine media particles while maintaining free water flow. As a result, the basket supports proper operation of the entire system and reduces the risk of filtration material entering the sensitive components of the controller.
In water treatment installations, even small media particles can negatively affect head operation. Using a properly selected top basket helps maintain stable device performance and protects its critical components.
The product is used in a wide range of water treatment devices. It can be used, among others, in:
It is a universal operating and installation component wherever filtration or treatment media works inside the tank and the head requires effective protection against its fine fractions.
The basket is equipped with longitudinal openings with a width of only a fraction of a millimeter. This design allows free water flow while effectively limiting the penetration of media particles into the inside of the head. This is especially important in systems where controller reliability and the patency of internal flow channels directly affect the correct operation of the entire station.
The precise manufacture of this type of component translates into maintained system performance and longer service life of parts in contact with flowing water.
Installation note: this is a glued version for installation on standardized head profiles. The product does not fit heads equipped with clips, so-called tabs. Before purchase, it is worth comparing the mounting method with the component currently used in your treatment station.
If you are replacing a worn top basket, pay particular attention to the distribution tube diameter and the type of mounting. This model is intended for a 1 inch distribution tube and glued installation. It is not suitable for snap-in solutions or heads with characteristic clips.
The manufacturer or supplier may use different visual versions of the same component. This means that the product may differ in appearance from the one shown in the photo, while maintaining the same functionality and intended use.

A worn, damaged, or incorrectly selected top basket may reduce head protection and increase the risk of media particles entering the controller. In practice, this may affect the operating smoothness of the device, the condition of moving parts, and the durability of the entire treatment system.
Replacing it with the correct model is a simple way to maintain proper station operation and reduce the risk of unplanned operating issues.
The top basket is used to protect the treatment station head and controller against filtration media particles. At the same time, it allows free water flow through the system.
The product is intended for a distribution tube with a diameter of 1 inch.
This is a glued version intended for installation on standardized head profiles.
No. This model does not fit heads equipped with clips or tabs.
This model will work well in many water treatment devices, such as water softeners, iron removal filters, manganese removal filters, carbon columns, and other treatment stations with a compatible head.
Thanks to its longitudinal slots with a very small width, the basket retains media particles that could otherwise get inside the controller and damage the nozzles or moving parts.
Yes. Depending on the delivery, the appearance of the component may vary, but its functionality and intended use remain the same.
Before purchase, check the distribution tube diameter, the mounting method, and the type of head profile. This model is intended for a 1 inch tube and glued installation on standardized head profiles.
