Sioux Chief 825 Series Modular ABS Shower Drain with Stainless Steel Strainer

The Sioux Chief 825 Series is a modular ABS shower drain family built for rough-in installation beneath a shower base or pan, available in the 825-2A and 825-20A configurations. Each unit features a 1-1/2" hub connection that also functions as a 2" spigot, giving installers flexibility when tying into the drain-waste-vent (DWV) line below the floor. The drain body is molded from ABS plastic and is topped with a 430 stainless steel strainer, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant screen over the drain opening. This is a trade rough-in plumbing component intended for plumbers and contractors working behind the wall or under the shower pan, not a decorative fixture selection. Whether you select the 825-2A or the 825-20A, the shared ABS body, stainless strainer, and dual hub/spigot connection remain consistent across the family.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 1-1/2" x 2" hub connection doubles as a 2" spigot, allowing the drain to mate with either pipe size on the DWV side of the installation.
  • Durable Construction: ABS plastic drain body resists the chemical and moisture exposure typical of shower drain-waste applications.
  • Stainless Steel Strainer: 430 stainless steel strainer caps the drain opening to catch debris while standing up to repeated exposure to water.
  • Modular Design: Configured as a modular shower drain assembly, simplifying alignment with the shower base during rough-in across both 825 Series models.
  • Hub/Spigot Connection Type: Flexible hub or spigot connection method supports varied DWV piping layouts.
  • Installation Note: Manufacturer instructions specify not to use putty with plastic shower drains such as this ABS unit, helping installers avoid a common installation error that can compromise the seal.

Why Sioux Chief?

Sioux Chief builds the 825 Series modular shower drain from ABS plastic with a 430 stainless steel strainer, giving plumbers a durable rough-in component designed for straightforward hub or spigot connection to the DWV line.

Sioux Chief 825-2A – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sioux Chief 825 shower drain connect to 2 inch DWV pipe, or only 1-1/2 inch?
Both. The 825 Series drain body has a 1-1/2 inch hub that also works as a 2 inch spigot, so you can glue it inside 1-1/2 inch pipe or drop the spigot end into a 2 inch hub below the pan. Trade size is listed as 1-1/2 in. x 2 in.
2) Can I use plumber's putty under the strainer flange on this ABS shower drain?
No. Sioux Chief's instructions say not to use putty with plastic shower drains, and the 825 body is molded ABS. Putty can attack the plastic and spoil the seal, so follow the manufacturer's sealing method instead.
3) What is the difference between the Sioux Chief 825-2A and 825-20A?
Both are the same drain: ABS body, 430 stainless strainer, 1-1/2 in. hub / 2 in. spigot connection. The 825 Series is packaged 20 each per case, so the two model numbers are the packaging and ordering difference rather than a change in the drain itself.
4) Is this a rough-in drain or a finished decorative shower drain?
Rough-in. The 825 Series is a modular drain body that installs beneath a shower base or pan and ties into the DWV line below the floor. The stainless strainer is a functional debris screen, not a designer grate, so pick it for new construction, pan replacement, and remodel rough-in work.
5) Is the Watco 9300-PVC-CP a direct drop-in replacement for a Sioux Chief 825-2A?
Treat them as alternatives rather than a guaranteed drop-in. The Sioux Chief 825-2A is a modular ABS body sized 1-1/2 inch x 2 inch with a hub/spigot connection; the Watco 9300-PVC-CP is a PVC-bodied Innovator 9300 drain. Because the body materials differ, the solvent cement and the pipe material below the pan have to be confirmed before swapping, and the existing pan opening diameter should be checked against the replacement body.
6) Is the 825 Series strainer going to rust in a commercial shower?
The strainer is 430 stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant grade, over an ABS body that handles constant moisture and drain-waste chemical exposure. Finish is stainless steel, so it stays bright rather than wearing through a plating like a chrome-plated part would.
7) Is the Sioux Chief 825 shower drain made in the USA?
Yes, country of origin on the 825 Series is the United States, which matters on public and institutional jobs carrying domestic sourcing requirements.
