Product Information
Full details
The Schläfer 70 mm drain is an ideal solution for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to upgrade or replace sink drainage in kitchen and bathroom applications. This Italian-made unit offers the key benefit of a removable basket strainer, which effectively captures debris to prevent plumbing clogs, though it is specifically engineered for sinks with a 60 mm hole diameter and 1 1/2 inch siphon systems, making it incompatible with larger commercial-grade setups.

Can I use harsh chemicals to clean this?
While the stainless steel is durable, we recommend mild soap and water to ensure the longevity of the finish and seals.
What material is the basket made of?
The product utilizes stainless steel and high-quality recycled materials for durability and sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Water draining slowly
Check if the removable basket cap is full of debris and clean it out.
Leakage at the siphon connection
Verify that the rubber seal between the drain and the siphon is correctly seated and the connection nut is tightened.
Drain does not fit the sink hole
Verify that your sink hole is exactly 60 mm in diameter; this product is not compatible with larger standard drain openings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a sink with a 60 mm diameter hole. Ensure your existing plumbing utilizes a 1 1/2 inch siphon connection to match the drain outlet.
- Ensure the sink opening is free of old sealant or debris.
- Position the drain unit into the 60 mm hole using a suitable sealant or gasket if required.
- Secure the underside connection to your 1 1/2 inch siphon.
- Hand-tighten connections, ensuring the gaskets are properly seated to prevent leaks.
For ongoing care, simply lift the central basket cap periodically. Rinse it under running water to dislodge trapped particles and wipe the interior ring with a non-abrasive sponge to prevent mineral buildup.
