Tub drain to match Hansgrohe Oil Rub Bronze

16 years ago

Hopefully this is a quick and easy question. Can anyone recommend a drain and overflow assembly kit that closely matches the ORB finish of the Hansgrohe line?

It is after 5:00pm and Hansgrohe is closed or I would call them. I have checked their website, but I have not found any drain kits available.

This will be going in a Toto 1525 16" deep, cast iron tub.

Thanks All!

I have never seen it, how dark is it? This one is darker than it appears in the picture, just a little lighter than Delta Venetian Bronze. I needed a drain and overflow plate with one screw to match Delta fixtures and this worked fine, I got both in a set on ebay for under $25

Geberit bathtub drain assemblies are among the very best available. I've used them for years in my own home and in the rental properties that I own (you know if a tenant can't wreck them, they're tuff!)

They're available in a wide range of finishes, including ORB.

I have a Rohl ORB in the kitchen - it has a living finish, so it's worn over the past 6 years. Doesn't bother me in the least and adds to the charm of our new "old" home. I used RH Bistro ORB in the MBath. They are made by Newport Brass. There is no discoloration whatsoever after the same amount of time. Obviously, not a living finish. We have hard water, but deposits have not been a problem. I just clean weekly and remove any I see building up. The powder room is also by Newport Brass in ORB, no problems there either.

just make sure if you go with ORB that you find all your fixtures before deciding on it. I have the shower fixtures all bought and can not find a roman tub faucet or lavatory faucets that I like. Also the finish is SO different depending on the company it's really hard to mix and match without it looking weird. The couple I found that were IMO perfect were not made in ORB. If my shower was not finished with everything installed I would return the fixtures and pick something else. Or an other company. I went with Moen.

Did someone here paint a clawfoot tub?

Mine was resurfaced in the interior of the tub with some kind of plastic coating. At first, it resembled very closely real glazing, but after about 3 years, the applied coating began to chip off. Anyone know of something I can touch it up with, to avoid having to have the whole thing redone? I am told that no-one will take an old tub and re-apply a new coat of glazing to the cast iron, and that the plastic stuff is the best restoration you can do. I wouldn't have even considered refinishing it, except for some severe damage to the original glazing on the bottom of the tub. It wasn't chipped, but there was an irregular spot where the sheen was totally gone, leaving a rough, yellowed, sandpaper like texture.

Oh shoot, just saw the new weigh-ins. John, I backed out of doing the curbless shower and am just doing a regular. It was stressing me out too much. I had too many worries and decided it wasn't worth it. The shower is the very last stop out of the house for all the drainage, and it's a private sewer system with a grinder pump. In the event of a clog or other plumbing issue, I didn't want to risk my shower getting backed up without a curb to help contain. I tried actually ordering a matching drain when I ordered the fixtures, but strangely they didn't have one. Then I forgot about it, whoops. Maybe it was the online retailer I used, but I'm searching now and still not finding a Delta shower drain in the Venetian Bronze, which is the shower hardware I ordered. I'd have to get something in another brand which wouldn't be an exact match.

Lynn & James,
Thank you for the responses! After speaking with Hansgrohe this morning, I have found out that they do not sell drain assemblies. Also, since their ORB finish is different than most, there is no "true" match available. So instead of trying to get close to matching it, we are going to go with a completely different finish. Hopefully, it will look like "yes indeedy.... I meant to do that!" as opposed to " Ooopps!"

Thanks again for the leads!
