P Traps

Fitting a P trap is a simple but highly effective way to prevent bad smells from entering your rooms. It’s cleverly designed with a U-shaped bend that holds water to create a seal – a toilet or sink P trap will stop odours and potentially hazardous sewer gases from reaching the home.

At Toolstation, we stock a variety of P traps from the trade’s most trusted plumbing brands such as McAlpine. Find a toilet, sink or shower P trap to suit a range of pipe installations from plastic to copper and lead.

Adjustable P Traps

An adjustable P trap offers an additional swivel function for increased versatility when working in tight spaces. This is particularly useful for a basin or sink P trap – the adjustable inlet gives you more flexibility to complete a neat and tidy installation.

Other P traps can offer telescopic adaptability, but they all offer the same reliable performance. When waste water flows down the drain, a small amount of water remains in the U-shaped bend to provide a physical barrier that blocks gases and odours from rising – a P trap is a crucial fitting for preserving a clean and comfortable living space.
