I need to repair a rusted toilet flange. I have access from the basement and could cut the existing 4 in. Sch. 40 pipe, add a coupler and put in a complete new closet flange. The other way is using the Oatey Moss Bay replacement flange, much less work if all goes well.
However, I picked one up at Lowes and although its supposed to be stainless steel it looks suspiciously like zinc plated steel to me and doesn't say stainless steel anywhere on the flange or packaging as with other Oatey products. Could Oatey be pulling a fast one here and quietly substituted a lower quality material, has anyone used this flange?
