Frequently Asked Questions
What does an intake grate do on a jet ski?
The intake grate sits underneath the hull, covering the opening where water is drawn into the pump. It protects the impeller from rocks, sand, weeds, and debris while still allowing water to flow through efficiently.
Will an aftermarket intake grate improve performance?
Yes. A well designed aftermarket grate can improve water flow to the pump, which helps the impeller work more efficiently. Some grates are also built to reduce cavitation in shallow or weedy water.
Can I install an intake grate myself?
Most intake grates bolt directly onto the existing hull mounting points, usually requiring the ski to be lifted or tilted. It's a straightforward bolt-on job for most models, though access can be a bit tight depending on the ski.
What are Worx intake grates made from?
Worx intake grates are available in both cast and CNC machined billet aluminum, all machined in house at our facility. We're able to offer the premium billet option on select ski models, so check what's available for your specific ski.
Will this fit my specific ski model?
Intake grates are model specific due to differences in hull shape and mounting points. Always confirm your exact model and year against the listed compatibility before ordering.
