OATEY P7224B Dearborn® Traditional Half Kit, Schedule 40 - PVC Touch-Toe Stopper with Chrome Finish Trim

The P7224B is a half kit, meaning you get the bath waste trim and stopper side of the assembly, not the full rough-in. Pipe and the tee are not included, so plan on supplying the PVC drain pipe and waste tee separately. The kit itself is PVC with a chrome finish trim, a one-hole faceplate for the overflow, and a foam rubber gasket behind it.

Solvent weld. The P7224B is Schedule 40 PVC and its joints are cemented, so you will need PVC primer and cement on the job. It is not a compression or slip-joint waste, so if the existing tub waste uses slip nuts you are changing the connection method when you go to this one.

No. The touch-toe stopper on the P7224B seals by pressing it down with your foot at the tub drain, so there is no linkage inside the overflow and no trip lever on the faceplate. That is why the faceplate is a plain one-hole style. If the tub you are servicing has a trip lever handle on the overflow plate, this is a different waste type, not a drop-in match.

The exposed trim, the drain flange and the overflow faceplate, is chrome, which is the standard finish on most tub and shower trim. For property managers standardizing units, that makes it an easy match to existing polished chrome tub spouts and valve trim.

No separate gasket purchase is needed for the overflow. A foam rubber gasket is part of the kit and seats between the overflow faceplate and the tub wall. Foam rubber conforms to the tub surface, which helps on older or slightly irregular overflow openings.

Order it as Oatey P7224B, the Dearborn Traditional half kit in Schedule 40 PVC. Product weight is listed at 1.315 and volume at 0.092, which is useful when you are palletizing a multi-unit rehab order.
