Sleek Linear Design
The Strip Grate VL features a minimalist linear design that sits neatly within the shower floor. The slim grate profile provides a subtle alternative to traditional square or round shower wastes, helping create a clean and contemporary bathroom aesthetic.
The brushed stainless steel finish adds a refined look that complements a variety of bathroom finishes, fixtures and tile styles. Smooth contours across the grate are designed to minimise areas where hair and debris can become caught.
Flexible Installation
Designed with installers in mind, the Strip Grate VL provides flexibility when working with different shower layouts and plumbing positions.
The collection channel can be cut to the exact length required onsite, while the outlet spigot can be positioned wherever needed along the channel. This allows the drain to be aligned with new or existing plumbing without being restricted to a fixed outlet position.
The kits are available in 750mm, 900mm, 1200mm, 1500mm and 2250mm lengths, with the option to cut to length or join sections together where required.
20mm Snap-Off Upstand
The Strip Grate VL features a 20mm removable snap-off upstand along the collection channel. When the drain is installed against a wall, the upstand helps provide a practical surface for integrating the waterproofing system and allows tiling to be completed neatly against the wall.
If the drain is being positioned away from the wall, the upstand can be broken off to suit the installation.
Waterproofing Flange
A 20mm flange is incorporated into the collection channel to allow the drain to be waterproofed into place as part of the shower floor installation.
Once the channel has been installed into the shower base, the screed can be run up to the drain. The waterproofing system can then be applied over the screed and grate system before the area is prepared for tiling.
Easy to Install
The Strip Grate VL is designed to provide a straightforward installation process for tradespeople. The grate and collection channel can be cut to the required size, with the end caps and spigot glued into position before the system is fitted into the shower base.
Once the screed and waterproofing have been completed, the shower floor can be tiled. The unique spacer system allows the grate to be raised to the appropriate height, helping it sit flush with the surrounding floor tiles.
Connection to Plumbing
The collection channel is designed to integrate directly into the plumbing system and can connect to a 50mm PVC S-trap. The ability to position the spigot along the collection channel provides additional flexibility when aligning the shower drain with the plumbing configuration.
Brushed Stainless Steel Finish
The brushed stainless steel finish provides a modern, understated appearance that works well across contemporary bathroom designs. It offers an alternative to polished chrome while maintaining the clean, linear aesthetic of the Strip Grate VL range.
Whether used as a wall-to-wall shower drain or positioned within the shower floor, the Strip Grate VL provides a practical and visually refined drainage solution.
