A versatile sink drain strainer designed for sinks with an Ø82, Ø86, or now Ø90mm diameter, featuring an integrated plug. The press-fit design accommodates a drain plug stem that fits most modern drains (Ø8mm) and includes a gasket for a secure seal, allowing you to plug the drain without removing the strainer. This innovative design prevents clogs while simplifying water retention. Assembly is quick, and the strainer can be glued for added durability.
Features:
- Fits Ø82, Ø86, or Ø90mm sink drains.
- Integrated plug support with a press-fit stem.
- Gasket ensures a reliable seal for plugging the drain.
- Maintains its straining functionality even when used with a plug.
