The J Bend installs easily to a kitchen sink. For connection to a wall with an elbow. For a complete sink trap, purchase elbow for connecting to IPS or sweat and assemble as illustrated. Recommended procedure for installation P or S type trap:

1. Turn off water at the tap.
2. Remove old J Bend.
3. Remove nut A from new J Bend and place on tailpiece as illustrated.
4. Position J Bend. Tighten nuts A and B securely. Run water to test for leaks.

Installation hints:

1. Since it "traps" items that may fall into the drain and blocks gases from the waste drain system, water and dirt will be present in the existing trap.
Place a bucket under the old trap before attempting to remove it.
2. Put thread sealant tape on the drain threads before attaching nuts. This will provide a better seal against leaks.
3. Use a scrap of cloth to protect the chrome finish on the nuts when you tighten  with a pipe wrench.

Pipe or spud wrench (to remove old brass J Bend). Pipe dope or thread sealant tape
