+OSB ITD35 ABS Island Tub Drain Rough-in for Freestanding Bathtub, Simplifies Installation, Water, Air, and Smoke Testable Tub Drain, Designed for 8"/10" Joist Space, Plumbing Supplies

As a professional plumber with 25 years experience I cannot wait until the freestanding tub fad ends. They're impractical, inefficient and just plain annoying. The only thing securing most of them to the floor is crap ton of caulk. Please stop using them!!That being said, as long as they're around, this is the drain I'll use. It installs easily, it's never failed me yet and I can test it on the rough-in. Other companies make some that look similar but almost always have test plugs that are broken.Please stop with the freestanding tubs!

This is a great product and works great the install was so easy definitely a great dragon for my freestanding tub

My plumber said he was going to start keeping them on his truck. He had never seen such a great design. He had it installed in minutes. Worth every penny!

This kit was pretty pricey but if you are putting in a free standing tub this thing is amazing and so simple to use. Just figure out where your drain will be, cut a six inch round hole in the sub-floor and screw this to the sub-floor. Put in your flooring material (in my case, cement board and tile). Hook up your drain lines underneath and you are ready to install the tub. With one person helping, we attached the tub tailpiece, lifted the tub up and slid the tailpiece into the drain. The kit is funnel shaped so it guided the tailpiece and tub right in place. The beautiful thing is that if I ever need to take the tub out for any reason there is no reason to tear out the ceiling below to unhook anything, the tub just lifts right out and can be put right back in. Everything was included. The drain kit, solid brass tailpiece and all the connectors and adapters necessary to hook this to my PVC drain lines. I'd definitely buy this again and recommend it to anyone installing a freestanding tub.

Throw away the flex tube that comes with your tub and use this product with the brass tail pipe that’s included. I did knock off 1 star because the pull tab on pressure test plug broke off and I had to drill a hole in it to pry it off. They need to make it a screw on plug.Use some plumbers grease on the tail pipe so it slides in easier.

We had a customer who bought a fiberglass free standing tub. When we opened it, the tub came with flexible tube that connected to the tub. I did not want to depend on a slip compression joint to hold back any water. So I bought this hoping it would make my life easier. Install was easy. Breaking the tab to get to drain was a little nerve wracking. I had read a lot of reviews that said it broke off, couldn't remove, damaged gasket. I took my time. I used lineman pliers to get it out. I just went slow and wiggled for about 1 minute and it snapped right out. I did have a few little pieces aroind the edge that I thought could damage the gasket. I took my utility knife and just scraped those off. Put the included drain tail piece on the tub, put the plumbers grease on the pipe and slid the tub down. It worked great! Totally worth the money if you cannot access the plumbing from below. I will buy this again.

Works great, good quality. Recommended

I bought this for a free standing tub on the second floor in a large shower area (6x9). After measuring the tub drain position and remeasuring I drilled the hole through the sub-floor and my min deck I made to sit the cast iron tub on. The time savings was just unreal. No more cutting ceiling drywall under the bathroom to plumb the ABS drain! Once the hole was cut and the pipe depth was cut I used ABS cement and secured this to the ABS. My only issue: since I installed a free standing tub finding a 6 inch escutcheon to cover the hole on the floor has been problematic. Other than that it saved me tons of time and effort! It still rates five stars!!! If anyone knows where to get a cover for this let me know.
