Watco 38305-PB Lift Turn Tub Drain Stopper

Product Description

The WATCO 38305-PB is a lift turn tub drain stopper designed for residential bathtub drain assemblies. It operates by lifting and rotating the stopper cap to open or close the drain, providing a straightforward mechanical seal without requiring linkage hardware inside the overflow plate. Weighing 0.65 pounds, this stopper is a direct-replacement component installed by plumbers and experienced DIYers during routine drain maintenance or full drain assembly upgrades.

This stopper is suited for standard residential bathtub drain applications where a lift turn style is specified or already in use. It is a common replacement choice when the existing stopper cap shows wear, corrosion, or fails to seat and seal properly. The polished brass finish, indicated by the PB suffix in the part number, provides a classic appearance that pairs with brushed and polished metal fixture finishes found in many residential bathrooms.

Key Features

• Lift turn operation — open and close drain by lifting and rotating the stopper cap
• Polished brass finish for a classic, corrosion-resistant appearance
• No overflow linkage required — stopper functions independently of trip lever hardware
• Lightweight at 0.65 pounds for easy handling during installation
• Direct replacement design suited for standard residential tub drain openings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement lift turn stopper for standard residential bathtub drain assemblies requiring a lift turn style stopper.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or knowledgeable DIYer and requires shutting off water supply to the tub before beginning work. The stopper threads or snaps into the drain crossbar — remove the old stopper by lifting and unscrewing counterclockwise before seating the replacement. Refer to local plumbing codes (IPC) for any drain assembly requirements in your jurisdiction. Do not overtighten the stopper body against the drain crossbar, as this can restrict lift turn movement.
