How to fix push plug missing the disc?

Am I able to replace the disc on this sink or do I need to replace the whole silver part..

 

Doesn't seem to have any thread around that bit in the middle for a new disc to go on.. 

 

If i have to replace it how do i get the existing one out?

Re: push plug in bathroom sink is missing the push down disc

Hi @Imz93,

 

It appears that your sink has a proprietary pop-up plug system, which differs from the standard push-down plugs commonly seen and pictured below. In your unit, there doesn’t appear to be a way to thread or attach a replacement disc, and there aren’t any off-the-shelf parts that will fit directly.

 

Given this, the most practical solution is likely to replace the entire waste assembly with a new one. Replacing a waste would be considered plumbing work requiring a licensed plumber.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

Mitchell
