They are suitable for the waste going through the floor (S trap) or through the wall (P trap). The trap attaches to the bottom of the basin to carry the waste water to the drain.
The bend in the trap holds a small amount of water, creating a water seal to stop odours coming up from the drain pipe.
The standard colour for this type of trap is white or light grey depending on the blend of PVC used.
They are the most cost efficient option.
