FAQs
What size is this basin plug?
This basin plug is designed for 1 1/4 inch (32mm) waste pipes.
Does this plug come with a chain?
No, this plug features a 'Quick-Clac' push-to-lift mechanism and does not require a chain.
Can I use this plug in a bath?
Yes, if your bath has a compatible 1 1/4" (32mm) waste fitting and a slotted overflow, this plug can be used.
What is a 'slotted overflow'?
A slotted overflow is a hole or slot in the basin or bath, usually near the top, that allows excess water to drain away, preventing the basin from overflowing. This plug is designed to work with such systems.
What is the material of the plug?
The plug is constructed from brass with a chrome-plated finish.
How do I clean the plug?
Clean the plug with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to protect the chrome finish.
Will this plug fit any drain?
No, it is specifically designed for 1 1/4" (32mm) waste pipes and is intended for use with slotted overflows. Ensure your waste fitting matches these specifications.
Troubleshooting
Plug does not seal properly
Ensure the plug is the correct size (1 1/4" / 32mm) for your waste fitting. Check that the waste fitting itself is clean and undamaged. Ensure the plug is fully seated and that there are no obstructions in the drain.
Plug is difficult to lift or press
Check for any debris or limescale buildup around the plug or within the waste pipe opening. Clean the plug and the surrounding area. Ensure the overflow slot is clear, as this can affect pressure equalization.
Chrome finish is tarnishing
Clean the plug with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The AB Tools Basin Bath Plug is designed for simple installation into existing standard 1 1/4" (32mm) basin or bath waste outlets. Ensure the waste outlet is clean and free of debris. The plug simply inserts into the opening and is held in place by the water pressure and the seal of the waste fitting. It is compatible with waste pipes that have a 1 1/4" (32mm) connection size.
Compatibility: This plug is specifically designed for use with 1 1/4" (32mm) waste pipes. It is also intended for use with basins or baths that feature a *slotted overflow*. The slotted nature of the overflow is crucial for the plug's functionality, allowing excess water to drain when the basin is overfilled.
Care: To maintain the plug's appearance and function, clean it regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the chrome-plated finish. Periodically check the plug for any wear or damage to ensure a proper seal.
