Waste King Garbage Disposal Dishwasher Connector Kit 1023 Black

Description

Product Overview

The Waste King 1023 Black Dishwasher Connector Kit is engineered to bridge the gap between your dishwasher’s drain hose and the inlet of a garbage disposal unit. Crafted from high‑impact, food‑grade plastic, the connector resists corrosion, heat, and the occasional chemical exposure common in kitchen environments. Its compact dimensions—8 x 6 x 6 inches—and lightweight design (1.76 ounces) make it easy to handle during installation while providing a robust, long‑lasting seal. The kit includes a precision‑molded connector that accepts 1‑1/4″, 1″ and 3/4″ outside‑diameter hoses, ensuring a universal fit across most dishwasher models and all major garbage disposal brands. Two stainless‑steel hose clamps are supplied to secure the hose firmly, preventing leaks and vibration over time. The black finish not only blends seamlessly with most appliance aesthetics but also hides any minor scuffs that may occur during routine use. With a one‑year limited warranty, Waste King stands behind the durability and performance of this essential kitchen accessory.

This connector kit is designed for both DIY homeowners and professional installers who need a reliable solution for connecting a dishwasher to a garbage disposal. Whether you are upgrading an older kitchen, replacing a worn‑out hose, or installing a new dishwasher in a remodel, the 1023 kit simplifies the process. The connector fits snugly into the standard 1‑1/2″ dishwasher inlet on the disposal, while the included clamps adapt to a range of hose diameters, making it suitable for a variety of dishwasher models—from compact countertop units to full‑size built‑in appliances. Its plastic construction ensures that it will not rust or degrade when exposed to hot water, detergent residues, or food particles, providing peace of mind for daily use. The kit is also ideal for rental properties where quick, reliable installations are required without the need for specialized tools. By delivering a leak‑free seal, the connector helps maintain proper drainage, reduces the risk of water damage, and keeps your kitchen environment clean and efficient.
