German term

Steckrohrsieb

German to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering
It is a part in a machine used in the food production, the text also uses "Steckrohr".
I have considered "sieve" or "strainer", but am not really sure and thought I might ask the experts.
The words are needed for a terminology glossary.

Steckrohr Da gibt es wahrscheinlich zwei Betrachtungsweisen:
1) Stecken, wie Auf-/Einstecken, für die Montagebewegung wäre push-on/in pipe
2) Steckrohr als Abgrenzung zu Schraub- und Flanschrohr, dann kann es u.a. ein plain end oder bevelled end pipe sein, wobei ich eher zu plain end tendiere.
Bernd Runge Sep 23, 2016:
Oh I had the impression you were looking for the "sieb" bit.
Kyra OL (asker) Sep 23, 2016:
I don't have any options, hence my post here.
Bernd Runge Sep 23, 2016:
So what are the options for Steckrohr then?

plug-in tubular strainer

Ich glaube, die Betonung muss auf Rohrsieb und nicht auf Steckrohr fallen.

Filter for feed tubes

Different types of filters are used in the food production industry.
This could mean filter, used for the insert or feed tubes.
Note from asker:
Dear Pallavi, this sounds completely correct because that's what it is about - filter out unwanted material. I will get a book on production in my client's industry in both languages and see what it is called in there. Thanks for your comment.
