Standardized OD geometries configured for frictionless push-fit and snap-in installations on pre-existing cast iron, brass, and PVC clamping drains across New York multi-unit housing.
Understanding why commercial plumbers, master plumbing contractors, and architectural hardware wholesalers in New York require specialized, heavy-duty replacement shower drain components.
Over 65% of residential structures in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens feature legacy cast-iron or lead hub drainage risers installed decades ago. Standard big-box replacement covers often fail due to micro-variations in throat tapers and internal corrosion build-up. JANA Plumbing manufactures prongs with customized austenitic spring tempered steel that grip uneven internal drain throats securely without wobbling or loosening under hydraulic loads.
The New York City Construction Codes, particularly Title 28 Plumbing Code (Appendix C & PC 412), enforce stringent zero-leakage, fire-rated floor penetration standards, and non-corrosive drain fittings. Our replacement grids and trim components are manufactured in strict adherence to ASME A112.18.2 / CSA B125.2, providing third-party certified mechanical endurance that easily clears inspections conducted by NYC DOB examiners.
New York City's Catskill/Delaware water supply, while naturally soft, contains chemical characteristics that react swiftly with inferior zinc-diecast or low-copper pot metals. Combined with daily exposure to heavy commercial detergents, bleach, and hydrochloric acid descalers utilized by hospitality teams in Midtown hotels, our solid forged brass (Cu > 58%) and passivation-treated 304/316 stainless strainers guarantee lifetime structural integrity without pitted chrome or cracking.
How JANA Plumbing combines 28,400 m² of highly automated industrial capacity with dual-origin manufacturing to insulate New York supply chains from tariff volatile and inventory bottlenecks.
Equipped with 160-ton to 400-ton progressive hydraulic stamping presses and customized multi-stage tooling dies, our facilities punch, form, perforate, and coin strainer grids with micron-scale repeatability. Edge deburring and bevel profiling ensure that no burrs catch bathroom rags, toes, or drainage hair clusters during everyday residential use.
Unlike small job-shops that outsource finishing, JANA operates automated multi-axis robotic buffing lines and closed-loop electroplating/PVD chambers. Finishes include Polished Chrome, Matte Black, Brushed Nickel, Satin Brass, and Oil Rubbed Bronze, rated for 96+ hours in neutral salt spray testing (ASTM B117) to withstand tough urban cleaning routines.
Importers and master plumbing wholesalers face ongoing trade dynamics and Section 301 tariffs on Chinese metalware. With our 14,400 m² secondary facility operational in Kabinburi Industrial Zone, Thailand (Gateway Enterprise Corp.), procurement directors can route custom tooling or volume supply orders through Thailand, enjoying tariff exemptions while preserving identical quality standards.
Technical dimensional parameters and material compositions engineered for seamless retrofit compatibility with leading North American brand footprints (Oatey, Sioux Chief, Watts, Kohler, Franke).

From Manhattan luxury high-rises to Queens multi-family housing developments, our drain components solve mission-critical maintenance hurdles.
Renovating classic townhouses in Brooklyn Heights, Park Slope, and Harlem requires matching historic aesthetic trims while modernizing deteriorated under-tile pans. Our solid brass drain strainers interface cleanly with mortar-bed clamping collars, offering custom brushed bronze and antique finishes that preserve architectural authenticity while ensuring leak-proof sealing.
Hotel operators cannot afford shower drain blockages that trigger water damage across consecutive floors. JANA’s high-flow replacement grids feature optimized aperture sizing that catches human hair without restricting flow below 7.5 GPM, preventing water pooling in zero-threshold walk-in showers and curbing high-cost insurance claims.
Managing thousands of rental units across the Bronx and Queens calls for standardized, tamper-resistant drain grids. Our snap-in models are engineered with high-tension retention prongs that snap tightly into place without screws, preventing tenant tampering while remaining readily serviceable by maintenance personnel using specialized puller keys.
