OATEY 74217 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Oatey 74217 cleanout fit 3 inch or 4 inch PVC drain pipe?
Both. The Oatey 74217 is a general purpose cleanout that works on either 3 inch or 4 inch PVC, so one part covers the two most common DWV branch and main sizes. You solvent weld it to the PVC line and the access plug threads into the body.
2) Will the Oatey 74217 work on cast iron or ABS drain pipe?
No. The 74217 body is PVC, built to solvent weld to PVC DWV pipe. For cast iron you need a cleanout designed for a no-hub or caulked joint, and ABS needs an ABS-bodied cleanout since PVC and ABS cements are not interchangeable in most jurisdictions.
3) What is the cover on the Oatey 74217 cleanout made of, and how big is it?
It comes with a 6 inch cast brass cover with a round top. Cast brass holds up better than plastic where the cleanout lands in a finished floor or a traffic area, and the 6 inch round face gives you something to get a wrench or bar on when the plug has been sitting for years.
4) Can I use the Oatey 74217 as a floor-level cleanout access in a finished slab?
That is what the round cast brass top is for. The 6 inch cover sets flush as the access point over the PVC cleanout body, so the drain line stays reachable after the floor is finished. Set the body so the cover lands at your finished floor height before you glue the PVC.
5) What part number do I order for the Oatey 3 or 4 inch PVC cleanout with the brass round top?
Order Oatey 74217. That is the manufacturer part number for the general purpose PVC cleanout with the 6 inch cast brass cover and round top, and it is sold as a single model with no size or finish options to specify.
6) How much does the Oatey 74217 cleanout weigh for shipping or a materials takeoff?
The 74217 weighs 5.3 pounds, most of that in the cast brass cover. Volume is listed at 0.729. If you are standardizing cleanouts across a building, that weight is worth noting when you order them by the pallet.
