Watco 948700-CP Push-Pull Bath Drain Trim Kit with Chrome-Plated Finish and Grid Strainer
The Watco 948700-CP is a push-pull bath drain trim kit finished in chrome-plated (CP) for the visible above-deck components, paired with a grid-style strainer for the drain opening. This 3-piece (3P) kit is designed to give a plumber or contractor the visible trim components needed to complete a bath waste installation, coordinating the stopper mechanism, overflow trim, and grid strainer as a matched finish set. It is intended for use as the finish-out kit on a tub or lavatory drain assembly where a push-pull style stopper operation is specified.
Key Features
- Push-Pull Operation: The stopper is operated by a push-pull mechanism, allowing the drain to be opened and closed without a separate lift-rod linkage assembly.
- Chrome-Plated Finish: The visible trim components carry a chrome-plated (CP) finish for a consistent appearance across the stopper, overflow cover, and strainer.
- Grid Strainer Design: The kit includes a grid (G) style strainer cover for the drain opening, in place of a solid stopper cover.
- 3-Piece Kit: Supplied as a 3-piece (3P) trim set, providing the matched components needed to finish out the drain trim in one coordinated package.

Watco 948700-CP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What exactly comes in the Watco 948700-CP drain trim kit?
The 948700-CP is a 3-piece trim set: the push-pull stopper, the overflow cover trim, and a grid-style strainer for the drain opening, all in matching chrome-plated finish. It is the visible finish-out hardware only, so the tub waste and overflow body, tailpiece and tubing have to already be in the wall or come separately.
2) Does a push-pull bath drain need a lift rod or trip lever linkage behind the overflow?
No. Push-pull operation means the stopper opens and closes by hand at the drain itself, so there is no lift-rod or trip-lever linkage running down inside the overflow tube. That is the practical difference from a trip-lever (lift-and-turn linkage) waste: fewer moving parts behind the wall and nothing to adjust for linkage length.
3) Can I use the Watco 948700-CP to replace just the worn trim on an existing tub drain?
That is what it is built for. It supplies the above-deck pieces (stopper, overflow cover, strainer) as a matched chrome set for bath remodel trim replacement and new-construction trim completion, so you can refresh the visible parts without tearing out the waste and overflow body. The existing drain must be set up for push-pull stopper operation, not a trip-lever linkage.
4) Is the Watco 948700-CP a solid stopper or an open grid?
It ships with a grid (G) style strainer cover at the drain opening rather than a solid stopper cover. A grid keeps hair and debris out of the waste line while the drain is open, which is why it gets specified in commercial and multi-family baths where clogs are the recurring maintenance call.
5) Will the chrome on this Watco kit match my other bath fixtures?
The 948700-CP is chrome-plated (CP) across all three visible pieces, so the stopper, overflow cover and strainer read as one finish. Chrome-plated is the standard bright chrome used on most builder-grade tub spouts and trim, which makes it the straightforward pick when you are standardizing drain trim across a block of units.
6) What is the Watco part number to order for the chrome push-pull grid kit?
Order Watco model 948700-CP. The 948700 is the base model and CP designates the chrome-plated finish option; the same number covers the push-pull, grid-strainer, 3-piece configuration.
7) Can I use this Watco trim kit on a lavatory sink as well as a tub?
Yes, it is intended as the finish-out kit on a tub or lavatory drain assembly where push-pull stopper operation is specified. On a lavatory that means the sink drain body must accept a push-pull stopper rather than a pop-up with a lift rod and pivot ball behind the tailpiece.
