Check your sink’s fit

Designed for most standard 3.5-inch kitchen sink drains and garbage disposals. The strainer measures 5.25 inches across to cover the drain flange. Check your drain dimensions before ordering.

Measure before you order

Black Flex Strainer in a stainless-steel sink with 5.25-inch overall width, 3.5-inch drain opening and 1.5-inch basket depth labels, green feature checkmarks, Made in USA badge, and three steps for measuring the drain opening and flange before purchase. Not a universal fit.

  1. Remove the old strainer. Clear the drain so you can see the opening and the surrounding flange, the rim around the opening. Do not reach inside a garbage disposal.
  2. Measure straight across the center. Use a ruler or tape measure to check the drain opening edge to edge, then measure the surrounding flange separately.
  3. Compare before purchasing. Flex Strainer is designed for most standard 3.5-inch drains and disposals and measures 5.25 inches across overall. Compare both measurements with your sink’s dimensions.

Measure your own drain flange before purchase. Sink and disposal designs vary; Flex Strainer is not a universal fit. The graphic is not to scale and is not a printable sizing template.

FAQs

What is the Flex Strainer® and what does it do? +
The Flex Strainer® is a 2-in-1 kitchen sink strainer and stopper that fits most standard 3.5-inch drains and garbage disposals. It catches food scraps and debris to prevent clogs, and doubles as a drain stopper for soaking — eliminating the need for two separate accessories.
What drain sizes does Flex Strainer fit? +
Designed for most standard 3.5-inch kitchen sink drain and disposal openings, not a universal fit. The outer rim measures 5.25 inches across overall; this is not the drain-opening measurement. Measure your drain opening and surrounding flange before purchase.
Is Flex Strainer BPA-free and dishwasher safe? +
Yes. Flex Strainer is made from BPA-free flexible polypropylene and is fully dishwasher safe. Simply lift, dump food scraps, and toss it in the dishwasher for effortless cleaning.
Is Flex Strainer Made in USA? +
Yes. Flex Strainer is proudly Made in the USA with quality American manufacturing.
How does the 2-in-1 strainer and stopper function work? +
Flex Strainer's flexible design allows it to sit in the drain opening for everyday straining. To stop the drain, press it down firmly to create a watertight seal — perfect for filling the sink to soak pots, pans, or produce. No separate stopper needed.
Will Flex Strainer fit my garbage disposal? +
It is designed for compatible standard 3.5-inch disposal openings. Fit varies by sink and disposal design, so measure the opening and surrounding flange before purchase. Do not reach inside a garbage disposal.
How do I clean the Flex Strainer? +
Flex Strainer is dishwasher safe for easy maintenance. You can also rinse it under running water or use a soft brush to remove food debris. Its flexible construction makes it easy to pop out and clean in seconds.
What makes Flex Strainer better than a standard rigid basket strainer? +
Unlike rigid basket strainers, Flex Strainer's flexible polypropylene construction makes it easier to remove, clean, and reseat. It also doubles as a drain stopper — a function most rigid strainers don't offer — and its 5.25-inch coverage fits a wider range of drain flanges.
Is Flex Strainer available in multi-packs? +
Available options include 1PK, 2PK, 3 Piece Set, 10PK and 50PK. Select your pack and color before ordering; the displayed price is for the selected option. The 3 Piece Set is a separate option and should not be interpreted as three identical 2-in-1 units.
Who is Flex Strainer best suited for? +
Flex Strainer is ideal for homeowners, renters, RV owners, and anyone who wants a simple, durable, all-in-one sink strainer and stopper. It's especially useful in kitchens with garbage disposals or double sinks where versatility and easy cleaning matter most.
