OATEY 43498 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Oatey 43498 closet flange fit over 4 inch ABS pipe?
Yes. The 43498 is an ABS Level-Fit toilet flange that fits over 4 inch pipe, so it slips over the outside of the stub rather than inside it. If your rough-in is 3 inch pipe or you need an inside-fit hub connection, this is not the right body.
2) Do the closet bolts fall through the slots on this Oatey ABS flange?
No. The stainless steel ring on the 43498 uses patented bolt slot shelfs that hold the closet bolts in place and stop them dropping through the slot while you set the bowl. The ring also rotates, so you can line the bolts up square to the wall before you fasten it down.
3) Is the Oatey 43498 approved for code work?
It is UPC listed and meets ASTM D2661, the standard that covers ABS DWV fittings. That is the pairing most inspectors look for on a residential or multi-family ABS drain, waste and vent system.
4) Can I solvent weld this flange to PVC drain pipe?
No. The 43498 body is ABS, and ABS cement bonds to ABS. On a PVC stub you need a PVC flange, or a transition made with an approved mechanical coupling rather than cement.
5) Does the Oatey 43498 come with a test cap?
No. The 43498 is the version supplied without a test cap, so there is no knockout barrier for pressure or water testing the drain line. If your inspection calls for a test, order the test-cap version of the flange instead.
6) How many screw holes does the Oatey 43498 flange ring have, and will it work on a wood subfloor?
The stainless ring has 6 screw holes, laid out to suit any toilet installation type and to give a secure anchor to the floor. That hole count gives you alternate positions when a joist or a bad spot in the subfloor blocks one of them.
7) What is the Oatey part number and shipping weight for the 4 inch ABS flange with stainless ring?
Order it as Oatey 43498. It weighs 1.25 lb, light enough that property managers commonly stock several for turnover work.
