Product Information

Full details

The KDMD 38mm Pop Up Basin Sink Drain Stopper is an ideal solution for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to upgrade their bathroom drainage with a functional, clog-preventing mechanism. Its primary benefit is the integrated stainless steel basket that captures hair and small valuables before they enter your plumbing, though users should ensure their current drain diameter measures 38mm to guarantee a watertight seal.

FAQs

Will this fit a standard kitchen sink?

This model is specifically designed for 38mm basin and bathroom sink drains, which are generally smaller than standard kitchen sink drains.

Do I need plumbers tape to install this?

In most cases, the integrated flexible rubber ring provides a sufficient seal, making additional plumbing tape unnecessary.

How do I remove the basket for cleaning?

Simply pull the top section of the stopper upward to reveal the basket, then lift the basket out for cleaning.

Is the stainless steel rust-proof?

The basket is made from high-quality stainless steel, which is designed to resist water-based corrosion and rust under normal bathroom conditions.

Can I use harsh chemical drain cleaners with this?

It is not recommended, as harsh chemicals can degrade the rubber seal and finish of the stopper over time.

Troubleshooting

Water drains slowly

The basket is likely full of debris. Lift the internal filter, remove the caught hair or particles, and rinse it before replacing.

Stopper does not hold water

Ensure the rubber O-ring is seated correctly and that the stopper is pressed firmly into the closed position.

Unit feels loose in the drain

Check that the rubber ring is properly positioned around the base. If the drain hole is at the outer limit of the 38mm tolerance, ensure the unit is pushed fully into the center.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents drain blockages by catching hair and debris
  • Easy installation requiring no specialized plumbing tools
  • Fits a wide range of sink hole sizes due to the flexible seal
  • Stops small valuables from being lost down the drain
  • Simple push-button operation

Cons

  • Requires manual cleaning of the filter basket periodically
  • Not suitable for drains significantly larger or smaller than 38mm
  • May require a slight adjustment to the rubber ring for a perfect seal

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the KDMD stopper is straightforward. First, remove your old drain plug and clean the sink hole to ensure the surface is free of lime scale or soap residue. Place the new unit into the sink drain; the flexible rubber ring should create a snug fit against the pipe walls. If the fit is tight, ensure the unit is centered to avoid cross-threading or misalignment. For care, it is recommended to lift the basket weekly to wipe away residue. Use only mild soap and a soft cloth or brush to clean the stainless steel surface, as harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges may scratch the finish or damage the seal.
