Difference between Slingy 3 point and rapid throw-off Last viewed: 2 hours ago

Posts: 173 Threads: 106

Can someone explain what the difference is between these two throw-offs.

Not physically, but rather how they work.

I know the 3 point has been around for 80 years but what is the benefit/negative of the rapid throw-off

Take a look at artical 5 here. It's the section on Slingerland strainers and might help? It reviews both and the changes through the years.

I still don't understand how they operate differently.

Can someone explain

Technically and mechanically, both the 3-point and Rapid strainers operate the same way. The difference is in the construction, which reflects the time period. When you compare the two side-by-side, it's easy to see how the 3-point morphed into the Rapid strainer.
