Oatey 42018bn Snap-tight Shower Drain Strainer 4.25 in

Product Description

The OATEY 42018bn is a snap-in replacement strainer designed to update the visible top of a residential shower drain without requiring full drain assembly replacement. At 4.25 inches in diameter, it fits any round drain top of the same size and delivers a brushed satin nickel finish that coordinates with widely used faucet and fixture finishes. The nickel construction provides corrosion resistance appropriate for wet, daily-use shower environments. Installation requires no tools and no adhesives. Licensed plumbers and qualified DIYers install this type of strainer as part of routine drain maintenance or cosmetic fixture upgrades.

This strainer is suited for residential shower drain applications where the existing drain body accepts a 4.25-inch round top. The snap-tight design allows the strainer to be seated securely and removed quickly when drain cleaning or clog removal is needed. It is commonly used in bathroom remodels and finish-upgrade projects where matching fixture hardware finishes across the space is a priority without the cost of replacing entire drain assemblies.
