Brasscraft 226-407 Slip Joint Reducing Nut 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 Inch

Product Description

The PLUMB SHOP DIV BRASSCRAFT 226-407 is a chrome plated slip joint reducing nut with rubber washer, designed to connect drain tubing with an outer diameter of 1-1/4 inches to fittings or traps with an outer diameter of 1-1/2 inches. It is used in drain assemblies beneath sinks and lavatories where a size transition is needed between smaller outlet tubing and a larger trap or tailpiece. The chrome plated finish resists corrosion and blends with exposed under-sink hardware. A rubber washer is included to ensure a watertight seal at the joint. Installation requires no special tools and is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified DIYers.

This reducing nut is suited for residential bathroom and kitchen drain applications where a 1-1/4 inch OD tube must connect into a 1-1/2 inch OD slip joint fitting. Typical installations include lavatory drain extensions, P-trap connections, and sink basket strainer outlets. It is sold individually and is a straightforward replacement or new-installation component for standard PVC or chrome drain assemblies.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by a licensed plumber or qualified technician as part of a sink drain assembly. Before servicing any drain connection, shut off the water supply and clear standing water from the trap. Hand-tighten the slip joint nut over the rubber washer until snug, then verify the joint is leak-free before returning the drain to service. Do not overtighten, as this can deform the rubber washer and cause leaks.
