Product Details

Why a low profile drain

In a van, every inch under the sink is storage. A straight-down drain and trap can take half the cabinet. This side-outlet drain keeps the connection up high and the flexible hose snakes around whatever else lives down there.

What you get

  • Low profile drain body
  • 3 1/2 in basket strainer
  • Flexible drain hose
  • Adapters for 1 1/4 in and 1 1/2 in fittings

Good to know

  • Built by Tec Vanlife.

How to choose a van sink drain

1. Sink opening

Most kitchen sinks use a 3 1/2 in opening.

How to choose: Measure your sink's drain hole before ordering.

2. Cabinet space

A side outlet keeps the drain about 1.8 in tall.

How to choose: Tight cabinet below the sink? Go low profile.

3. Gray water line

Your plumbing will be 1 1/4 in or 1 1/2 in.

How to choose: This drain ships with adapters for both.

Before you order

  • Confirm a 3 1/2 in sink opening
  • Check your gray line size

How this drain stacks up

  • Space: side outlet, about 1.8 in tall
  • Fit: any 3 1/2 in sink
  • Connection: 1 1/4 in and 1 1/2 in adapters included
Will it fit my sink?
If your sink has a standard 3 1/2 in (90 mm) drain opening, yes.
What does it connect to?
The flexible hose and adapters connect to 1 1/4 in or 1 1/2 in drain fittings on your gray water line.
Why low profile?
A standard drain drops straight down and eats cabinet height. The side outlet keeps everything close to the sink so you keep that storage.
Is a strainer included?
Yes, a 3 1/2 in basket strainer to catch food scraps before they reach the drain line.
