Zurn Z1736 – 12" Diameter Extra Heavy-Duty Floor Drain

An extra heavy-duty, 12" (305 mm) floor drain with an all Type 304 stainless steel body, integral anchor flange, and a deep-flange, non-tilt grate—engineered for high flow and long life in demanding environments.

In technical terms, the Z1736 combines cast Type 304 (CF8) stainless construction with a deep flange grate and anchoring to the slab, plus outlet choices for threaded (IP) or butt-weld (BW) piping. In plain English: it’s a large-capacity, corrosion-resistant drain that stays seated under traffic and stands up to washdowns and weather.

Key Features

  • 12" diameter top with deep-flange, non-tilt grate to resist rocking under wheel loads.
  • All stainless steel body (Type 304 standard) with integral anchor flange for secure slab embedment.
  • High intake: grate open area ≈ 34 in² for fast draw-down at low points.
  • Approx. assembly weight: ~61 lb (varies by outlet).
  • Outlet families: IP threaded (3", 4", 6") or BW butt-weld (3", 4", 6"; specify Sch. 10/40).

Where Z1736 Excels

Ideal for industrial plants, food & beverage processing, loading bays, parking decks, and high-traffic service areas. Stainless construction resists corrosion from brine and cleaning chemicals, while the non-tilt grate and anchor flange protect the installation over time.

Options & Variants (Snapshot)

  • Material prefixes: Z = Type 304 SS; ZM = Type 316 SS for elevated chloride exposure.
  • Waterproofing: -K seepage holes only; -KC clamp collar with seepage holes for membrane tie-in.
  • Security & finish: -TS top secured; -VP vandal-proof; -SF satin finish top.
  • Maintenance: -Y sediment bucket for debris capture at gritty or landscaped areas.

Installation Highlights

1) Set & Reinforce

Place the stainless body at rough elevation; tie to rebar through the integral anchor flange for stability during the pour.

2) Select the Outlet

Use IP for threaded steel systems or BW for welded stainless—specify pipe schedule (10/40) to match your system.

3) Seal & Protect

If a membrane is present, add -KC clamp collar; protect the grate and collar during finishing to maintain alignment and sealing.

Case Study: Chemical Washdown Zone Retrofit

A food processing facility saw frequent corrosion and grate movement at a loading-dock washdown area. Upgrading to Zurn Z1736 with 4" BW outlets and ZM (Type 316 SS) bodies eliminated rust staining and improved safety. The non-tilt, deep-flange grate stayed flush under pallet-jack wheels, while a -KC collar ensured a reliable tie-in to the waterproofing. Maintenance reported faster draw-down after sanitation cycles and fewer downstream clogs where -Y buckets were installed.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I choose Type 316 stainless (ZM)?
Use ZM in higher-chloride or aggressive chemical environments (coastal sites, CIP chemicals). Type 316 improves pitting resistance over Type 304.
Threaded (IP) vs. Butt-Weld (BW) outlet?
IP integrates with threaded steel piping. BW allows fully welded stainless systems—specify pipe schedule 10 or 40 to match wall thickness.
What does “non-tilt” or “deep-flange” grate mean?
It seats securely to resist rocking and uses a deep perimeter flange to maintain flush alignment—helping prevent trip points and frame damage under traffic.
