Watco 601-FA-PVC-BZ Foot Actuated Bath Waste Drain Stopper, PVC Body, Oil-Rubbed Bronze Finish

Watco 601-FA-PVC-BZ Foot Actuated Bath Waste Drain Stopper, PVC Body, Oil-Rubbed Bronze Finish

The Watco 601-FA-PVC-BZ is a foot actuated bath waste drain stopper built on a PVC body and finished in Oil-Rubbed Bronze (ORB). Designed for installers replacing or rough-fitting tub waste-and-overflow assemblies, this foot-actuated (FA) mechanism lets the bather open and close the drain with a simple foot tap, eliminating the need for a trip lever or toe-touch linkage that runs through the overflow tube. The PVC construction of the drain body is intended to pair with standard PVC tub waste-and-overflow piping runs during rough-in, simplifying the connection for the installing plumber. The Oil-Rubbed Bronze finish is applied to the visible foot-actuated stopper mechanism that sits in the tub drain opening.

Key Features

• Foot Actuated Operation: The stopper opens and closes with foot pressure, removing the need for a separate trip-lever or lift-and-turn mechanism inside the overflow tube.
• PVC Body Construction: The drain body is manufactured in PVC, matching common PVC tub waste-and-overflow rough-in piping for a straightforward connection during installation.
• Oil-Rubbed Bronze Finish: The visible stopper component is finished in Oil-Rubbed Bronze (ORB) for the finished tub drain opening.
• Model 601-FA Series: Part of Watco's 601 foot-actuated bath waste line, intended as a drain stopper mechanism for tub installations.
• Rough-In Compatible: Designed to be installed as part of a behind-the-wall or under-tub waste-and-overflow assembly rather than as a standalone decorative accessory.
