The Pentair Basket (072795) is the OEM replacement basket for the Pentair C Series High Performance Commercial Pump line, designed to the original C-29 SS specification at 11 inches.
The strainer basket sits in the pump’s strainer pot and captures debris before it reaches the impeller. Keeping this basket in good condition protects pump efficiency and prevents premature wear on internal pump components. Replace when the basket shows cracking, deformation, or significant mesh damage that allows debris to pass through.

Pro Tip
The C-29 SS designation identifies the basket specification confirm this designation is stamped or molded on your existing basket before ordering. C Series pumps span a wide horsepower range, and the strainer pot configuration is consistent across the line, but always cross-reference your model number against the Fits Into table above to confirm this is the correct basket for your specific unit.
