Abstract
A pipe trap assembly is described. Embodiments of the pipe trap assembly can include a first plate, a second plate, and a plurality of fasteners. The second plate can include two or more protrusions extending inwardly from an interior edge of an opening in the second plate. The protrusions can be implemented to frictionally engage a waste line. In one example, the pipe trap assembly can be used to secure a waste line for coupling to a drain base of a drain assembly.
Claims7
A pipe trap assembly comprising:
- a first plate having a substantially frustoconical shape defined by (i) a cylindrical recess, (ii) a substantially horizontal radial flange extending outwardly from a top of the cylindrical recess adapted to interface with an area surrounding a hole in a subfloor, and (iii) a bottom surface including at least two holes and a central opening;
- a second plate including:
- a central hole;
- at least two protrusions extending inwardly from a circumferential edge of the central hole;
- and
- at least two holes;
- a plurality of fasteners adapted to pass through the at least two holes on the bottom of the first plate and couple to the at least two holes of the second plate;
- wherein the second plate (i) is remotely coupled to the first plate at a distance, and (ii) does not interface with the subfloor when coupled to the first plate.
