OATEY 74149 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to buy the cover and ring separately with the Oatey 74149?
No. The 74149 is sold as a complete general purpose cleanout: PVC hub base, 6 inch brass cover, and square ring in one assembly. All you add on the job is PVC primer and solvent cement for the hub joint.
2) Can I use the Oatey 74149 cleanout on a 3 inch line instead of 4 inch?
The base on the 74149 spans a 3 inch to 4 inch diameter range, so it covers both sizes in the Oatey hub-base lineup. The part as described is the 4 inch hub version, meaning the hub itself takes 4 inch PVC. For a 3 inch line you want the 3 inch hub base variant of the same general purpose cleanout rather than bushing this one down.
3) Is the cleanout cover on the Oatey 74149 brass or plastic?
Brass. The 74149 pairs a PVC hub base with a 6 inch brass cover, plus a square ring. Brass threads into the plastic base, so the cover can be backed out with a wrench for rodding and reseated without chewing up a plastic plug, which is why this combination shows up in commercial and multi-family work.
4) What does the square ring on this Oatey general purpose cleanout do?
The square ring is the finish frame that sits at grade or floor level around the 6 inch brass cover. It gives you a square opening to pour concrete or set tile against, so the round cover can be removed later without breaking out the slab. It ships as part of the 74149 assembly along with the PVC hub base and brass cover.
5) Is the Oatey 74149 a floor cleanout or a pipe-end cleanout plug?
It is a floor or grade access cleanout, not a simple threaded plug. The hub base glues onto the end of the 4 inch PVC riser and the brass cover with its square ring finishes flush at the surface, giving a drain snake a permanent access point. If all you need is to cap a stubbed line inside a wall or under a sink, a plain PVC cleanout plug and adapter is the cheaper part.
6) Can this Oatey cleanout be set in a concrete slab?
Yes, that is the usual application for the hub base and square ring combination. The PVC base is solvent-welded to the 4 inch riser before the pour, the square ring gives the concrete a clean edge to form against, and the brass cover threads out afterward for access. Set the ring flush to finished floor before the pour, because the adjustment range is limited once the concrete is in.
