Plumb Shop Div Brasscraft 436-956 Dishwasher Branch Tailpiece

Product Description

The PLUMB SHOP DIV BRASSCRAFT 436-956 is a chrome plated brass dishwasher branch tailpiece designed for kitchen sink drain assemblies. It connects the sink strainer basket directly to the drain trap while providing a dedicated 3/4 inch OD branch outlet for dishwasher discharge. Constructed from 22 gauge chrome plated brass, this tailpiece delivers corrosion resistance and a finished appearance suited to exposed under-sink installations. A captive nut is included, simplifying connection to the sink strainer without requiring separate hardware. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this fitting as part of a new installation or drain assembly replacement.

This tailpiece fits residential kitchen sink applications where a dishwasher drain connection is required at the tailpiece rather than through the disposal or a separate wye fitting. The 1-1/2 inch OD tube direct connect inlet mates with standard sink strainer baskets, and the 8 inch length suits typical cabinet depths. The 3/4 inch OD branch port accommodates standard dishwasher drain hose connections. It is suited for use in both new construction and retrofit drain assembly work under single or double-bowl kitchen sinks.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified DIYer. Shut off the water supply and clear the area under the sink before beginning work. Hand-tighten slip-joint nuts to avoid cracking fittings, then snug with channel-lock pliers — do not overtighten brass components. Verify the dishwasher drain hose creates a high loop or connects through an air gap per local plumbing code requirements before completing the installation.
