2010DCT - Genuine OEM Universal Basket Strainer Assembly, Stainless Steel

The 2010DCT Genuine OEM Universal Basket Strainer Assembly is a stainless steel sink drain component designed for kitchen sink applications. This Universal basket strainer features a double-cup design and is designed for sink openings measuring approximately 3-1/2 to 4 inches. The assembly includes the strainer basket and tailpiece components required for installation.

Available from Appliance Kingdom for customers across Canada, the 2010DCT is a practical replacement when an existing sink basket strainer is damaged, leaking, corroded, or no longer providing a proper seal. We serve homeowners, landlords, property managers, and professional repair technicians throughout Canada.

Function & Importance of the 2010DCT

The basket strainer sits in the sink drain opening and helps prevent food particles and larger debris from entering the drain while allowing wastewater to flow through. The 2010DCT uses a double-cup strainer design with a positive-sealing crumb cup and rolled edge to help provide a secure seal at the sink opening.

The assembly also includes a tailpiece, allowing it to connect with the sink's drain plumbing. Proper sizing and correct installation are important for maintaining a watertight connection and preventing leaks beneath the sink.

The stainless steel construction provides a durable option for a frequently used kitchen sink drain area.

Common Signs Your Sink Basket Strainer Needs Replacement

A damaged or deteriorated basket strainer assembly can contribute to several common sink-drain problems, including:

• Water leaking around the sink drain
• Dripping from the area underneath the sink
• A damaged or deteriorated strainer basket
• Corrosion or deterioration of the existing drain assembly
• Poor sealing between the strainer and sink
• A loose or damaged sink drain assembly
• Difficulty maintaining a secure connection to the drain plumbing

If the leak or drainage problem originates from the basket strainer itself, replacing the assembly can resolve the issue. However, leaks elsewhere in the drain plumbing, P-trap, connections, or sink itself will require separate diagnosis.

Will Replacing the 2010DCT Fix My Sink Leak?

It can if the basket strainer assembly is the source of the leak.

A worn sealing surface, damaged strainer, loose assembly, or deteriorated components can allow water to escape around the sink drain. Replacing the complete basket strainer assembly provides a new strainer and associated drain components.

Before ordering, inspect the source of the leak and confirm that the sink opening and existing plumbing configuration are compatible with the 2010DCT.

Installation Overview

Installing a basket strainer assembly generally involves removing the existing sink drain assembly, cleaning the sink opening and sealing surfaces, positioning the replacement strainer, securing the assembly from underneath the sink, and connecting the tailpiece to the drain plumbing.

This repair can be suitable for an experienced DIYer with basic plumbing knowledge and the appropriate tools. Because the assembly connects directly to the sink's drainage system, careful installation and proper sealing are important to prevent leaks.

If you are not comfortable working underneath the sink or connecting drain plumbing, professional installation is recommended.
