Sioux Chief 821 Test Plug for Shower Drain

Sioux Chief 821 Test Plug for Shower Drain

The Sioux Chief 821 Test Plug is a rough-in accessory built to temporarily seal the outlet of a Sioux Chief 821 series shower drain while the drain body is being pressure and water tested, before finish flooring or a shower pan locks the fitting in place. Plumbers set the plug into the drain outlet during the rough-in inspection phase, run their water or air test to confirm the connection holds, then pull the plug once the drain is cleared for final tie-in and trim-out. Keeping the outlet capped during this window also keeps mortar, thin-set, tile debris, and other job-site material from working its way into the drain body while surrounding trades finish the floor. The plug is manufactured in the United States and is supplied 10 EA per carton, a quantity sized for stocking a service truck or a job box on multi-unit new-construction and renovation work.

Key Features

• Purpose-Built Fit: Sized and configured specifically to plug the outlet of the Sioux Chief 821 shower drain during rough-in, so there is no guesswork matching plug to drain.
• Test-Ready Seal: Temporarily seals the drain body so the crew can verify the shower drain connection holds water or air pressure before the inspector signs off and finish work proceeds.
• Debris Protection: Blocks mortar, thin-set, tile debris, and other construction material from entering the drain body while the shower pan, membrane, and finish floor go in around it.
• Removable When Ready: Designed to be pulled once the drain has passed rough-in inspection and is ready for the shower strainer or finish assembly.
• Job-Ready Packaging: Supplied 10 EA per carton, a practical quantity for stocking rough-in plumbing trucks, job boxes, and multi-unit projects.
• Made in the USA: Manufactured in the United States.
