Oatey 8031 Slip Joint Nut 1-1/2 X 1-1/4 Inch Chrome Plated

Product Description

The OATEY 8031 is a slip joint nut designed for sink drain assembly connections. It measures 1-1/2 inches by 1-1/4 inches and is constructed from die-cast material with a chrome plated finish. This nut is used to secure slip joint connections in drain lines beneath sinks, providing a leak-resistant mechanical joint without permanent bonding. The chrome finish blends with exposed trap and tailpiece hardware in residential and light commercial applications. Plumbers and drain service technicians install this hardware as part of P-trap assemblies and drain line repairs.

This slip joint nut is suited for use on sink drain installations where a 1-1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch transition connection is required. It is commonly used in kitchen and bathroom sink drain configurations, securing slip joint washers against tailpieces and trap arms. The die-cast construction holds thread engagement under repeated adjustments, making it a practical choice for both new installations and replacement of worn or corroded drain hardware.

Key Features

• Slip joint type connection for tool-adjustable, non-permanent drain assembly
• 1-1/2 inch by 1-1/4 inch size for standard sink drain transition fittings

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slip joint replacement nut for residential and light commercial sink drain assemblies requiring a 1-1/2 inch by 1-1/4 inch slip joint connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or experienced drain technicians. Shut off the water supply and place a bucket under the drain assembly before disassembling existing trap hardware. Hand-tighten the slip joint nut first, then snug with channel-lock pliers — over-tightening die-cast nuts can crack the fitting. Check for leaks by running water and inspecting the joint after installation. Work must conform to applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines.
