Oatey K826-20PC Bath Drain Closure Assembly

Product Description

The OATEY K826-20PC is a bath drain closure assembly designed to seal and cap bathtub drain openings during rough-in or when a drain requires temporary or permanent closure. This fitting is used in residential plumbing systems and is typically installed by licensed plumbers or experienced drain technicians. It provides a secure, watertight closure that prevents debris, gases, and backflow from entering the drain line before or after finish work is complete. The assembly ships as a single unit and is suited for standard bathtub drain configurations found in new construction and renovation projects.

The K826-20PC is intended for use in residential bathroom applications where a tub drain closure is required. It fits into standard bathtub drain rough-in installations and is commonly specified during new construction, remodels, or repair work where the drain opening must be sealed.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and ensure the drain line is not under pressure before beginning work. Do not overtighten the closure assembly, as this may damage the drain fitting or surrounding finish surface. Inspect the drain opening for debris or damage before seating the closure.
