A solid brass square grate that pushes straight into standard 100mm PVC pipe. No screws, no clips: press it in and the fit holds it for floor drainage in bathrooms, laundries, and commercial wet areas.
Brass does not corrode in wet service and keeps its dimensions, so the fit stays tight for the life of the drain.
Frequently asked questions
How do I install this grate into PVC pipe?
Clean the PVC pipe end thoroughly, then align and push the grate into the opening using firm, consistent pressure. A PVC-compatible sealant can be used if a tighter seal is required, or if the pipe end is not perfectly round.
Is this grate suitable for high-pressure drainage?
This grate is designed for typical floor waste applications. For high-pressure drainage systems, additional PVC-compatible sealant around the push-fit connection may be necessary to ensure a watertight seal.
Does this grate meet Australian plumbing standards?
Yes, the 100mm Brass Square Push Into PVC Grate complies with AS/NZS 3500 and is WaterMark Certified. This ensures it meets Australian plumbing and drainage requirements for safe and effective use.
Can I use this grate with pipes other than PVC?
This grate is designed specifically for direct push-fit installation into 100mm PVC piping. Use with other pipe materials is not recommended unless appropriate adapters and sealing methods, compliant with trade standards, are employed.
Substrate guide
Proper substrate preparation is critical for secure installation and long-term performance, particularly for direct push-fit connections.
PVC piping (100mm)
Surface prep: The PVC pipe end must be clean, free from burrs, and round to ensure a tight fit. Remove any debris, dust, or grease. A light chamfer on the pipe edge can assist insertion.
Primer: Not required for direct push-fit. However, if a PVC sealant is used for additional security or to correct minor fitment issues, follow the sealant manufacturer's priming recommendations.
