Mcguire 151 Basket Brass Basket Strainer 1-1/2 X 4 in

Product Description

The MCGUIRE 151 BASKET is a brass basket strainer designed for kitchen and utility sink drain installations. The body is cast brass with a chrome plated finish, giving it corrosion resistance appropriate for wet sink environments. It includes a 1-1/2 inch by 4 inch tailpiece, cast brass lock nuts, and coupling nuts for a complete installation assembly. Licensed plumbers install this strainer when replacing a failed or leaking drain basket or when setting a new sink. The chrome plated finish provides a clean, professional appearance at the drain opening.

This strainer is suited for residential and light commercial sink drain applications. It fits standard 3-1/2 inch sink drain openings and connects to 1-1/2 inch drain lines, which is the common configuration in kitchen sink plumbing. The included cast brass hardware eliminates the need for sourcing separate lock nuts or coupling nuts during a service call or rough-in installation.

Key Features

• Cast brass body construction for durability in drain service
• Chrome plated finish for corrosion resistance and finished appearance
• 1-1/2 inch by 4 inch tailpiece included
• Cast brass lock nuts and coupling nuts included in assembly
• Complete strainer assembly reduces parts sourcing time on the job

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation basket strainer for standard residential and light commercial sinks with 3-1/2 inch drain openings and 1-1/2 inch drain line connections.

Installation Notes

A licensed plumber should install or replace sink basket strainers in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and clear standing water from the sink before beginning removal of an existing strainer. Plumber's putty or an approved silicone sealant is typically applied under the strainer flange before seating. Do not overtighten the lock nut against the sink basin, as this can crack porcelain or composite sink materials.
