False Bottom diameter size for 5 gallon igloo cooler help needed.

Does anyone out there know what size false bottom I will need for an Igloo 5 gallon cooler? I know I could just measure it, but I am an idiot and would probably screw it up.

I currently use a stainless strainer designed for a larger diameter pot and have it slightly bent inside the cooler and it does not allow for complete drainage of the wort like a false bottom would. It does a great job of straining the wort though.

Salute!

I have the same cooler and I use a 9 inch false bottom. Fits perfectly.
