Will this drain stopper fit my Indian bathtub drain?

This Westbrass drain plug is designed for tubs with a 1-1/2 inch NPSM (1-7/8 inch - 11-1/2 UNC) coarse thread drain shoe. Check your existing drain's thread type and size; if it's coarse thread and matches, it should fit. Universal flat silicone stoppers offer more flexibility for varied Indian drain sizes if this specific coarse thread type is incompatible.

What is the difference between a flat silicone stopper and a pop-up stopper?

A flat silicone stopper sits over the drain and seals by suction, working well on worn or non-standard drains, while a pop-up stopper installs into a compatible drain mechanism and operates with a push or twist. This Westbrass model is a twist-and-close type designed for specific coarse thread fittings, not a universal flat suction type.

How do I operate the Westbrass 79438CP-Z drain plug?

Operation is simple: lift and twist the stopper knob upwards to open the drain and allow water to flow out. To close the drain and fill the tub, twist and push the knob down. This mechanism ensures a secure seal when closed.

Is this drain plug suitable for preventing hair clogs?

This specific Westbrass drain plug is designed primarily for sealing the drain and managing water flow. It does not feature an integrated hair catcher. For drains prone to hair clogs, consider a separate drain strainer or a stopper model that includes a hair trapping mechanism.

Why choose this product

Engineered for Longevity and Performance

This Westbrass drain plug is crafted from high-quality brass and heavy-duty metal, ensuring it withstands regular use and hot water without degrading. Its twist-and-close mechanism provides a secure seal, preventing leaks and ensuring your bath fills properly. The polished chrome finish is not just aesthetically pleasing but also resistant to corrosion, a crucial factor in humid Indian bathrooms where local fixtures can often rust or tarnish quickly. Unlike generic plastic alternatives, this metal construction offers superior durability and a premium feel.

Ideal for Coarse Thread Drains, Skip if Not Applicable

This drain plug is specifically designed for tubs with a 1-1/2 inch NPSM (1-7/8 inch - 11-1/2 UNC) coarse thread drain shoe. It offers a secure and leak-free fit for compatible systems. If your bathtub drain has a fine thread, a different size, or a pop-up mechanism that is not compatible with a coarse thread stopper, this model will not fit. Always verify your drain's thread type and size before purchasing to ensure proper function and avoid installation issues.

How to use

Ensure your bathtub drain has a 1-1/2 inch NPSM (1-7/8 inch - 11-1/2 UNC) coarse thread. This plug is designed for this specific fitting type. — Confirm Drain Compatibility
To open the drain, lift the stopper knob and twist it counter-clockwise. To close the drain and fill the tub, push the knob down and twist clockwise until it seals. — Operate the Stopper
Periodically remove the stopper to clean both the stopper and the drain opening. Wipe the polished chrome finish with a soft cloth to maintain its shine and prevent mineral buildup. — Clean and Maintain
