Eastman 40027 Brass-Plated Closet Bolts, 1/4" x 2-1/4", Toilet Flange Bolt Set

The Eastman 40027 is a set of brass-plated closet bolts sized 1/4" x 2-1/4", designed for securing a toilet bowl to the closet flange during rough-in or replacement installations. Brass plating on these bolts provides added corrosion resistance compared to bare steel, which matters in the damp environment around a floor flange where standing moisture and mineral buildup are common. Plumbers and contractors rely on properly sized closet bolts like these to ensure a tight, stable connection between the toilet base and the flange, preventing rocking, leaks at the wax ring seal, and long-term damage to the surrounding subfloor. At 1/4" diameter and 2-1/4" in length, this bolt size is one of the most common used in residential and light commercial toilet installations, making the Eastman 40027 a practical stock item for any plumbing service truck or supply house.

Eastman 40027 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will Eastman 40027 closet bolts fit a standard toilet closet flange?
Yes. The Eastman 40027 is a 1/4 inch diameter bolt, which is the size that matches the mounting slots on most standard closet flanges. At 2-1/4 inches long it covers typical residential and light commercial toilet installs, where the bolt only has to pass up through the flange slot and the china foot of the bowl.
2) Why use brass-plated closet bolts instead of plain steel?
Under a toilet the bolt sits in the wettest spot in the room, with wax ring seepage, condensation and mop water collecting at the flange. The brass plating on the Eastman 40027 resists corrosion better than bare steel, so the nut will still back off when the bowl has to come up again. On a re-set of an older toilet, rusted-solid steel bolts are usually why you end up cutting them off.
3) Are these the right bolts for a toilet re-set, or just new installs?
Both. The 40027 closet bolt set is used for new rough-in, fixture replacement, and flange repair or re-set work, which is why plumbers carry them as truck stock. Any time the bowl comes off the floor, the bolts get replaced rather than reused.
4) Do closet bolts come with wax ring and bolt caps, or do I order those separately?
The Eastman 40027 is the bolt set itself, in 1/4 inch x 2-1/4 inch. The wax ring or waxless seal is a separate item, and if you want finish caps on the bowl foot you add those too. For a complete toilet set, plan on bolts, a seal, and caps.
5) My toilet rocks after installation. Are the closet bolts the problem?
Often yes, in part. Properly sized closet bolts pull the bowl down tight against the flange so it does not rock, which is what prevents wax ring leaks and subfloor damage over time. If the bolts are loose, undersized for the flange slot, or corroded so the nut will not snug, the bowl moves. The 40027 is the standard 1/4 inch bolt for that connection. Note that a bowl rocking on an out-of-level floor still needs shimming, not more torque, since over-tightening cracks china.
6) How do I order the Eastman closet bolts by part number?
Order Eastman part number 40027, listed as a 1/4 inch closet bolt set. It is a single size offering, so there is no length or finish to choose at the order stage.
