The rimmed body is fixed on to the drain opening while the strainer is removable. The quality of the strainer will depend on what type of strainer it is and what material and finish it has.

This will give you the exact diameter of the space for the plug hole. Keep in mind that you cannot tell the metal ring around the drain when making the measurement. To put it simply, measure the inside rim for the exact diameter of the sink strainer plug.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another way of knowing the size of the plug is to use your old strainer plug. If you are going for a replacement, just measure it across the diameter from the top. Similarly, measure the depth of the old strainer. However, we suggest you follow the first method of measuring the inner rim for more accuracy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">     <a data-amazonimages=\"\" title=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08ML6SCSX\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"567\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" class=\"size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41B-RgYysLL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" class=\"size-large aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41B-RgYysLL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08ML6SCSX\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"568\">   Visit here to see this on Amazon.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_you_measure_a_sink_drain_opening\"><\/span><strong>How do you measure a sink drain opening?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To get the correct size of the kitchen strainer, the first step is to know the size of the drain opening. Just running your measuring scale diagonally across the opening isn&rsquo;t enough. You need to follow the given steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>At first, get a measuring tape, pen, and paper to note it all down.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take the measurement of the top of the circular drain. Estimate the distance from one point of the circle across the other. Remember that this is the widest part of the drain.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, hold the measuring tape vertically and slip it inside the drain by the edge. Take the measurement of the shallow depth. This is to make sure the body of the strainer fits perfectly.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure to repeat the process to be sure. This will be enough for a conventional strainer.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The strainer you choose must have a strainer lip that has a marginally greater diameter than the drain opening. Also, the body of the strainer must be slightly smaller than the noted drain diameter so that it can fit without hassle. If all this seems too much, just take the old one you want to replace.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">     <a data-amazonimages=\"\" title=\"Plumb Pak K5414BLK Keeney Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink Strainer with Fixed Post Basket, Fits Standard 3-1\/2-Inch Openings, Black\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0093NUJ74\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"569\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Plumb Pak K5414BLK Keeney Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink Strainer with Fixed Post Basket, Fits Standard 3-1\/2-Inch Openings, Black\" class=\"size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41QruAAgmpL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Plumb Pak K5414BLK Keeney Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink Strainer with Fixed Post Basket, Fits Standard 3-1\/2-Inch Openings, Black\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Plumb Pak K5414BLK Keeney Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink Strainer with Fixed Post Basket, Fits Standard 3-1\/2-Inch Openings, Black\" class=\"size-large aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41QruAAgmpL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Plumb Pak K5414BLK Keeney Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink Strainer with Fixed Post Basket, Fits Standard 3-1\/2-Inch Openings, Black\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0093NUJ74\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"570\">   Visit here to see this on Amazon. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_you_use_a_kitchen_sink_strainer\"><\/span><strong>How do you use a kitchen sink strainer?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kitchen sink strainers are very easy to use. When you <a href=\"https:\/\/yourniftyhome.com\/dish-cleaning-importance\/\" data-lasso-id=\"571\">wash dirty dishes<\/a>, the perforated holes on the strainer make sure that only water and other liquids pass through it. This means all the solid food parts will remain on the sink. After each heavy dishwashing duty, you may clean the area by throwing away the solid remains. You can detach the removable strainer part and wash it before putting it back to the drain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, strainers with smaller holes are more efficient as they can stop most of the solid food that drops. However, make sure to clean it every day, or else you might end up clogging the strainer itself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">     <a data-amazonimages=\"\" title=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08ML6SCSX\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"572\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" class=\"size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51rhaHnNTbL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" class=\"size-large aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51rhaHnNTbL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen Sink Drain Strainers x 1, Anti-Clogging Kitchen Sink Stoppers x 1, BEST HOUSE Stainless Steel Garbage Disposal Sink Plug for Most Drain Standard 3-1\/2 Inch\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08ML6SCSX\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"573\">   Visit here to see this on Amazon. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_you_replace_a_kitchen_sink_strainer\"><\/span><strong>How do you replace a kitchen sink strainer?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Plumbers can cost a lot, we understand. In case you want to replace the sink strainer all by yourself, here are a few of the steps that might help you:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>First, check if there is any leak in the sink. To do that, place a kitchen towel or a think clothing between the drain and the sink. Open the tap and fill up the sink with water. If the tissue or clothing gets wet, there is a leak. If not, you can continue with the next steps.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detach the intergraded nut. In order to loosen the nut, you&rsquo;ll have to use slip-joint pliers. Again use joint pliers to slacken the locknut on the sink strainer.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For the next step, ask for some help from your family. Have someone hold a screwdriver between the strainer grate handles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, you would need to apply plumber&rsquo;s putty on the top or lip of the drain opening.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now attach the strainer onto the putty and press it down. While you press it down, add the other components of the sink strainer.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close and screw the locknut again,&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\n    <a data-amazonimages=\"\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Kitchen SinkShroom Revolutionary Clog-Free Stainless Steel Sink Strainer, Chrome gray\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07L7TXFC7\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"574\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41h6lUFATgL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen SinkShroom Revolutionary Clog-Free Stainless Steel Sink Strainer, Chrome gray\" title=\"Kitchen SinkShroom Revolutionary Clog-Free Stainless Steel Sink Strainer, Chrome gray\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41h6lUFATgL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen SinkShroom Revolutionary Clog-Free Stainless Steel Sink Strainer, Chrome gray\" title=\"Kitchen SinkShroom Revolutionary Clog-Free Stainless Steel Sink Strainer, Chrome gray\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">   <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07L7TXFC7\/?tag=yourniftyhome-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"575\">Visit here to see this on Amazon.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A kitchen strainer does more than just keep that junk away from your sink pipe.
