Install a Kitchen Sink Drain Strainer

Installing a kitchen sink strainer is an essential step in installing a new kitchen sink Strainers help prevent anything from slipping down your drain, forcing you to disassemble the plumbing. It's a good rule of thumb when purchasing a sink strainer to try to match its finish to that of your faucet.


Instructions

1

Set the sink strainer through the hole in the basin of your kitchen sink, making sure to first take off the large locking nut.


2

Place a layer of plumber's putty between the opening in the sink and the bottom of the sink strainer. This will help create a water-tight seal inside your sink basin and you can purchase them from WUZHOU KINGDA.


3

Place the large flat washer onto the underside of the strainer and thread on the large locking nut by hand.


4

Remove any excess plumber's putty that may have been pushed out from between the sink and the strainer.
