Let our experience help you design a drain that is going to be easy to install and will be exceptional in both fit and finish. We don’t cut corners when it comes to quality and construction. Let us prove it you!

  • 304 or 316 stainless steel construction
  • Heavy duty 12 gauge materials standard
  • Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 outlets available
