It all appears to be solid stainless including the strainer/stopper. The only components not stainless are the rubber gasket, galvanized pressure plate which presses up against the gasket and the brass nut that secures the pipe to the drain. In my case I didn't need the stainless extension pipe - I just used the plastic nut and gasket from my previous installation. The strainer/stopper works perfectly. The drain was super easy to install with the 3 heavy stainless screws. Absolutely beautiful install compared to anything else I have ever seen. Not sure about the other finishes of this same item being coated or plated and issues with that but this version is the real deal. My wife used to pour bleach into our white ceramic sink to remove the marks left from pans, etc. It completely removed the chrome over time from the previous drain to reveal an ugly oxidized brass surface. She won't be using bleach anymore but I don't think it would be a problem if she did.

How do I know whether to order the strainer with or without the tail pipe?** A: If it's hooking up to the garbage disposal, then you don't need the tail pipe. If it's not hooking up to the garbage disposal, then you need the pipe. We have a double sink ,so we have one side with the pipe and the other side doesn't have the pipe because it has the garbage disposal. **Q: where is this made? I hope the USA** A: It’s a very solid made. High quality. USA **Q: What is the upper ring dimension (largest part) that sits on the sink opening? I'm needing a 4 1/2".** A: The ring that the strainer sits in has an outside dimension of 4 1/2 inches **Q: i have the k-8801. i want to replace just the duostrainer / just the basket. what is the # for again just the strainer** A: Here is a listing for the basket only: Note the color code, this one is brushed nickelKohler GP41398-BN Basket for Duostrainer, Brushed Nickel.

I know its just a drain for sink, but this thing has some weight to it. The main body is not just a stamped piece of metal. The upper part is a nice stainless steel and fit the sink perfectly. (Kohler Sink as well). The strainer part is nice looking as well. The stopper uses an O-ring for the seal, which could be cheaply and easily replaced if ever needed. For me, this strainer/drain was worth the extra money. I know I could have spent as little as $12 for essentially the same thing, but there is no comparison between the two as far as durability and appearance. ## Frequently Bought Together - KOHLER K-8801-VS Duostrainer Sink Strainer, Fits Most Standard Kicthen Sinks, Vibrant Stainless - KOHLER K-11352-BS Disposal Flange, One Size, Brushed Stainless - KOHLER 5540-NA Prolific 33 Inch Workstation Stainless Steel Single Bowl Kitchen Sink with Included Accessories, Undermount Installation, Stainless Steel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/4863612-kohler-k-8801-vs-duostrainer-sink-strainer-with-tailpiece-fits](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/4863612-kohler-k-8801-vs-duostrainer-sink-strainer-with-tailpiece-fits) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-21*
