You get two strainers, they are solid PVC, they are not at all flexible, they are not going to collapse.Plumbing fittings are measured from the inside diameter, because of the vast amount of materials that have different thicknesses needed or used in their applications.This strainer is 1-1/2 inch, inside diameter, and is 4 inches long with 3 inches exposed after threading.It is standard national pipe thread, NPT, so it will fit 1-1/2 inch PVC fittings.For my application which is a gravity fed water line, with the strainer at the inlet it should work nicely.

Good strainer for a pump intake from a stream or water source. The slots have ~1/8 inch opening going out almost 3 inches from the hex & pipe fitting. I'm considering using these for the intake from a creek and create a "siphon" thru some pipes to feed a pond area ~40 feet away and several feet lower (I hope the siphon can keep going without needing a pump constantly). FYI I've tried some things like taking a 8 foot pipe and drilling hundreds of holes under 1/8 inch to be a "strainer" for a pump, yet some pine needles or such would go in the holes and clog them easily in the source I used that in. So although it may seem better to do more "filtering" like that, the smaller holes don't seem to work where a bigger opening like this has is better (while it keeps out the big rocks etc). I suppose your source may be cleaner water than mine, so it's hard to say what's best without individual inspection.
