Sioux Chief 825-27A Modular ABS Shower Drain with Snap-In Stainless Steel Strainer

The Sioux Chief 825-27A is a modular ABS shower drain built for rough-in and remodel installations where a reliable, code-ready drain body is needed behind the finished pan. It features a 1-1/2" hub connection that also functions as a 2" spigot, giving installers flexibility when tying into existing branch drain lines of either size. The drain body is molded from ABS for corrosion resistance against drain-line moisture, and it is topped with a 430 stainless steel strainer that snaps into place for fast, tool-free assembly during finish-out. This is a trade rough-in component intended for plumbers and contractors setting shower drains prior to tile or pan installation, not a decorative bath accessory.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 1-1/2" hub connection doubles as a 2" spigot, allowing the drain to mate with either branch line size without an additional adapter.
  • Durable Construction: Modular ABS drain body resists the moisture and chemical exposure typical of shower drain-waste applications.
  • 430 Stainless Steel Strainer: The visible strainer component is manufactured from 430 stainless steel for durability at the shower floor penetration.
  • Snap-In Strainer Design: The strainer snaps into the drain body, speeding up installation and simplifying future removal for cleaning or service.
  • Installation Note: Do not use plumber's putty with this plastic shower drain — per manufacturer instructions, putty is not compatible with the ABS drain body and should be avoided during set.

Why Sioux Chief?

Sioux Chief builds this modular ABS shower drain with a corrosion-resistant drain body and a 430 stainless steel strainer designed for the moisture and wear found at the shower floor.

Sioux Chief 825-27A – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sioux Chief 825-27A shower drain tie into a 2 inch drain line, or only 1-1/2 inch?
Both. The 825-27A body has a 1-1/2 inch hub that also works as a 2 inch spigot, so it drops inside a 2 inch hub fitting or accepts 1-1/2 inch pipe into the hub. No adapter needed either way, which is why it works on remodels where you don't know what's under the pan until you open it up.
2) Can I use plumber's putty when setting the Sioux Chief 825-27A drain?
No. Per the manufacturer's instructions, putty is not compatible with the ABS body on the 825-27A and should not be used during set. Plan your seal method around that before the pan goes in.
3) What is the closest alternative to the Sioux Chief 825-27A shower drain?
The Watco 9300-PVC-CP Innovator shower drain is the nearest comparable. Both are plastic-bodied shower drains for rough-in and remodel work, but the Sioux Chief 825-27A is a modular ABS body with a snap-in 430 stainless steel strainer and a 1-1/2 inch hub that doubles as a 2 inch spigot, while the Watco 9300-PVC-CP is a PVC-bodied drain from the Innovator 9300 series with a chrome-plated finish at the floor.
4) Should I use an ABS or a PVC shower drain body on my rough-in?
Match the drain body to the branch line you are solvent-welding into: the Sioux Chief 825-27A has an ABS body, so it pairs with ABS drain-waste piping, while the Watco 9300-PVC-CP Innovator is a PVC-bodied drain for PVC piping. The 825-27A takes a 1-1/2 inch hub connection that also serves as a 2 inch spigot, so one body covers either branch size. Note that plumber's putty should not be used with the ABS body of the 825-27A per the manufacturer instructions.
5) Is the strainer on the Sioux Chief 825-27A removable for cleaning?
Yes, it snaps in and out of the drain body with no tools. The visible strainer is 430 stainless steel, so it holds up at the shower floor penetration and can be pulled for cleaning or rodding the line later.
6) Can I glue the Sioux Chief 825-27A to PVC drain line, or does it have to be ABS?
The body is molded ABS, so the solvent weld at the hub or spigot is an ABS joint. Joining ABS to PVC takes a transition method accepted by your local code rather than standard ABS cement, so match the branch material or plan the transition accordingly.
7) Is the Watco 9300-PVC-CP a drop-in replacement for the Sioux Chief 825-27A?
Treat them as alternatives rather than interchangeable parts. The Sioux Chief 825-27A is a modular ABS body with a 1-1/2 inch hub / 2 inch spigot connection and a snap-in stainless strainer; the Watco 9300-PVC-CP is a PVC body from the Innovator 9300 series with a chrome-plated face. Because the two bodies are different plastics, the one you set has to match the material of the branch line you are joining, and the strainers are not cross-compatible between the two drains.
8) How does the Sioux Chief 825-27A shower drain come packaged for a multi-unit job?
Case quantity is 20 each, which suits multi-family or hotel rough-in where you are setting the same drain on every pan. The drains are made in the United States.
9) Will an ABS shower drain body hold up in a commercial shower?
The 825-27A is specified for both residential and commercial rough-in. The ABS body resists the moisture and chemical exposure of drain-waste service, and the wear point you see and step on is 430 stainless rather than plastic.
