OATEY 82128 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe size does the Oatey 82128 general purpose drain connect to?
The Oatey 82128 has a 4 inch ABS pipe base, so it solvent welds onto 4 inch ABS DWV pipe. Oatey lists the size range for this drain body as 3 to 4 inch, so it can be used on 3 inch ABS as well depending on the base fitting you pipe it into. If your rough-in is PVC rather than ABS, this is not the right body.
2) Is the Oatey 82128 a shower drain or a floor drain?
It is a general purpose floor drain, not a shower drain. There is no clamping ring or weep system for a membrane, so it is not the part for a tiled shower pan or a mud-set bathroom floor. Use it where you are draining a slab or utility floor into 4 inch ABS, such as a laundry, mechanical room or garage. For a shower pan you want a membrane clamp drain instead.
3) Is the grate on the Oatey 82128 metal or plastic?
Brass. The 82128 pairs an ABS drain body with a 6 inch round brass strainer grate, so the walking surface is metal even though the body below the floor is plastic. That matters in a utility room or mechanical space where a plastic strainer would get cracked by carts or dropped tools.
4) Will a 6 inch brass grate cover the hole left by an older floor drain?
The strainer on the 82128 is 6 inches across, which is the common round grate size on general purpose floor drains, so it usually covers a similar opening in the finished floor. Measure the existing grate before you order. If the old strainer is larger than 6 inches you will see the rough opening around the edge and will need to patch the floor or step up to a larger grate.
5) What do I order to specify this Oatey general purpose drain?
One part number covers it: Oatey 82128, sold as a complete drain with the 4 inch ABS pipe base body and the 6 inch brass grate together. There is no separate finish, outlet or strainer option to pick.
