Oh did you, please tell me that you’re not the bellend who decided to have the captive nut finish more or less consuming all the threads( so it won’t turn no more, as it hits the shoulder)
not our bit, the connections were by others, and were down to cost ..I understand just like the early magnacleans.we only do the magnets, porting and the strainers . .Usually the bodies are the expensive bit in order to make them seem unique..in reality the guts are the unseen quality components ...often the connections were set up by the
originators from their side using their off the shelf parts
 
The good ones also act as hydra cyclones removing non magnetic material too.

Some computational fluid dynamics would be required to optimise the performance of them.

Yep, which don’t work neither. They may collect the odd lump. But I’m afraid most things just pass through, you can confirm this by seeing what’s not been collected opening up a magnaclean;)

Its not always clear cut, some companies have components they make themselves which are way cheaper than buying in.
Often 5pence + or - can swing things on a £100 unit. Its easy to produce a one off price for an item BUT get it wrong 100,000 times ..not good. Then the accountant
looks over things and shaves even further. Then there is the sharing of common non end user components ..its fun but complicated centralheatking
 
Why does it so many to design something so god damn simple.
Water goes in- passes a magnet- water goes out

Hardly making a part for nasa
market price, performance differencials all play a part. just look at petrol or derv. its all the same stuff..but the retailers try very hard to differenciate their stuff from the others...washing powder is the same. most of these magnet filters are similar
but smoke and mirrors takes effect
