OATEY 42787 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Oatey 42787 shower drain work if the drain hole in my slab doesn't line up with the pipe?
That's exactly what the 42787 is for. The drain body carries a 1-1/2 in. offset between the strainer opening and the pipe connection, so you can pick up a 2 in. DWV line that sits off center from where the shower base drains. It's the fix when a joist is in the way and can't be moved.
2) How does the Oatey 42787 offset shower drain connect to the waste pipe, glue or compression?
Solvent weld. The body slips over 2 in. DWV pipe and is cemented with PVC solvent cement, so you need clear access to the pipe stub and enough length to make the joint. There's no compression nut or gasketed pipe connection on it, and no threaded option.
3) Can I use the Oatey 42787 with a tiled shower pan or a liner?
No. The 42787 is built for preformed shower stall bases, with a receptor base and a fiber and rubber washer that seals the drain body to the shower floor. It has no clamping ring or weep holes for a hot-mop or PVC liner, so a mud-set tile pan needs a two-piece clamping-ring drain instead.
4) Do I need to buy a strainer separately for the Oatey 42787 offset drain?
No, a universal 4-1/4 in. round snap-tite stainless steel strainer comes with it. It snaps onto the drain body after the body is installed and cemented, so the cover goes on last and keeps debris out of the line.
5) Can I swap the stainless strainer on an Oatey offset shower drain for a brushed nickel or bronze cover?
Yes. The drain top accepts Oatey 4-1/4 in. Universal Snap-Tite strainers, which come in a range of designer finishes. Those are ordered separately from the drain. For a property manager standardizing finishes across units, that means one drain body under every base and the visible cover chosen per unit.
6) What size opening does the Oatey 42787 strainer cover, and will it hide a rough hole in the base?
The snap-tite strainer is 4-1/4 in. round. That is the visible footprint on the shower floor, so measure your base's drain opening against it before you commit, particularly on a base drilled or opened up in the field.
7) What is the part number and weight of the Oatey offset PVC shower drain with the stainless strainer?
Oatey model 42787, ordered by that number, and it weighs 0.833 lb complete with the strainer. Light enough that a multi-unit order ships without freight considerations.
