Oatey 25105 Superior Grade Plumbers Putty 5 Lb

Product Description

The OATEY 25105 is a superior grade plumbers putty supplied in a 5 lb pail, formulated for sealing drain fittings, sink strainers, faucet bases, and similar plumbing fixtures. The putty ships in solid form with an off-white color, making it easy to identify squeeze-out during installation. With a specific gravity range of 2.15 to 2.35, this is a dense, stable compound designed to hold a reliable water-tight seal under typical residential and light commercial plumbing conditions. Licensed plumbers and skilled trade professionals reach for this product when setting fixtures that require a malleable, non-hardening sealant at the point of contact between a fitting flange and a finished surface.

This putty is intended for use in residential and light commercial plumbing applications. It is most commonly applied when setting sink drains, basket strainers, pop-up assemblies, and faucet deck plates where a flexible, non-hardening seal is needed between the fixture and the countertop or sink basin. The 5 lb pail size suits service trucks and shop use where repeated small applications are required across multiple jobs.

Installation Notes

Plumbers putty is typically applied by licensed plumbers or experienced trade professionals during fixture rough-in or replacement work. Shut off the water supply and drain the line before disturbing any existing fixture. Roll the putty into a rope and press it uniformly around the underside of the flange or strainer body before seating it; wipe away all excess squeeze-out with a clean rag after tightening. Note that plumbers putty is not suitable for use with all materials — confirm compatibility with plastic, composite, or stone surfaces before application, as some materials may stain or degrade with oil-based compounds.
