Universal Replacement Ball Rod Assembly for Bathroom Sink Pop-Up Drains | Fits Ez-Flo, ProValue, and Most Standard Lavatory Pop-Ups | 6.5 Inch Chrome Steel Pivot Rod with Ball and Spring Clip

A bathroom sink stopper that sticks open, will not seal, or leaks out the back of the drain almost always comes down to one part: the pivot ball rod. This universal replacement ball rod assembly restores proper stopper movement and sealing in standard lavatory pop-up drains without forcing you to replace the entire drain body. The rod measures 6.5 inches and is built from chrome-plated steel with a molded pivot ball and a spring clip that secures it to the clevis strap. It is corrosion-resistant for the constantly damp underside of a sink and is dimensionally matched to standard pop-up linkage. It is designed as a universal fit for most standard bathroom sink pop-up drains, including Ez-Flo, ProValue, Plumb Pak K833-39, Danco 88488, and LDR, rather than a single proprietary brand. Installation is quick. Loosen the pivot nut at the back of the drain body, pull the old rod, slide the new rod through the stopper, and reconnect it to the clevis strap with the spring clip. Most repairs take under fifteen minutes with no special tools. The pivot ball rod is the single most common point of failure in a pop-up drain, so replacing just the rod usually solves a stuck or leaking stopper at the lowest possible cost. Please confirm fit before ordering. This is the pivot ball rod only, not a complete pop-up drain assembly and not a sink strainer. It fits drains that use a horizontal ball pivot rod roughly 6.5 inches long and does not fit lift-rod or push-button style drains. Backed by FourHome's commitment to high-quality aftermarket plumbing parts. If it does not perform as promised, we will make it right.

• DIRECT REPLACEMENT BALL ROD FOR POP-UP DRAINS: A universal pivot rod and ball replacement for worn or broken bathroom sink pop-up drain assemblies. The 6.5 inch chrome steel rod restores proper stopper lift and seal in standard lavatory pop-ups, including Ez-Flo, ProValue, Plumb Pak, Danco, and LDR drains.
• FIXES STUCK STOPPERS, SLOW DRAINS, AND PIVOT LEAKS: Replaces the worn pivot ball and bent or corroded rod that cause a stopper to stick open, refuse to seal, or leak from the back of the drain body when the basin is filled. Get the stopper moving and sealing again without replacing the whole drain.
• CHROME STEEL CONSTRUCTION WITH PIVOT BALL: Built from chrome-plated steel with a molded pivot ball and a spring clip that holds the rod to the clevis strap. Corrosion-resistant for the wet underside of a sink and dimensionally matched to standard 6.5 inch pop-up linkage.
• UNIVERSAL FIT FOR STANDARD LAVATORY POP-UPS: Designed to fit most standard bathroom sink pop-up drains rather than a single brand, including Ez-Flo, ProValue, Plumb Pak K833-39, Danco 88488, and LDR. Measure your existing rod near 6.5 inches with a ball pivot before ordering.
• AFTERMARKET CROSS-REFERENCES: Functions as a replacement for common pivot rod and ball rod service parts such as Plumb Pak K833-39 and Danco 88488. Compare your old rod length and the ball position against these references to confirm a match.
• COMPLETES THE POP-UP REPAIR: Pairs with a pivot nut, gasket, and clevis strap if you are rebuilding the full linkage. On its own it is the most common single point of failure in a pop-up drain, so replacing just the rod often solves the problem at the lowest cost.
• FOR PROPERTY MAINTENANCE AND PLUMBERS: A low-cost, high-frequency repair part for landlords, multifamily maintenance teams, hotels, and plumbers servicing bathroom sinks. Keep several on hand so a stuck stopper never means a full drain replacement. Amazon Business quantity pricing is available on multi-unit orders.
• INSTALLS IN MINUTES WITH BASIC TOOLS: Loosen the pivot nut at the back of the drain, pull the old rod, insert the new rod through the stopper, and reconnect it to the clevis strap with the spring clip. Most repairs take under fifteen minutes with no special tools.
• FOURHOME QUALITY AND LEAD-FREE COMPLIANCE: Manufactured to fit specifications and compliant with lead-free standards for potable water hardware. Backed by FourHome support if the part does not perform as described.
• VERIFY COMPATIBILITY BEFORE ORDERING: This is the pivot ball rod only, not a complete pop-up drain assembly and not a sink strainer. Confirm your drain uses a horizontal ball pivot rod roughly 6.5 inches long before ordering. It does not fit lift-rod or push-button drains.
