trooper96[501st] Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) I found this tonight while shopping at Lowe's. The package reads: The Keeney Manufacturing Company & Duracraft Plastics 700WW S TRAP FOR KITCHEN OR LAVATORY The model number on the package is 25031. The tube measures 1-1/2" x 1-3/8" x 18". Material is white polypropylene. Cost was $6.58. A Sterling bolt slides into the tube with no problem.

trooper96[501st] Posted September 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 It's definitely the right size, but is there a downside to using this? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmcguff Posted September 12, 2015 Report Share Posted September 12, 2015 May need to scuff it up with fine sandpaper or a scotchbrite pad for glue and paint to stick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trooper96[501st] Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 OK, What you see in the picture at the top of this thread is not an optical illusion. After applying a template and drilling, I noticed something wasn't quite right with the tube. I rolled it across the table and it wobbled. Sure enough, there was a slight curve to the tube. No way I'm using this one. I may try another set from a different manufacturer, but I'm sure straightness in not a primary consideration for what this kind of pipe is used for. Maybe I'll get lucky. We'll see. If not, I'll probably bite the bullet and go with 1-1/4" EMT conduit. Same dimensions, but steel. I don't favor that, so keep your fingers crossed.
