    Hi Fannindc

    I'm afraid that number isn't helping much... ;)

    I can tell you that there should be a few options available to you here.

    At a minimum, you should be able to replace any PVC shower strainer assembly using the WING-TITE shower strainer... see image. This is a "universal fit" shower strainer that actually allows for installation from ABOVE the floor so there is not necessarily a need for access to the drain/ptrap from below!

    Check it out at WingTite Shower Drain- Replace the Drain, Not the Whole Shower

    Another alternative would be to remove your assembly and take it over to a plumbing supply house. They should be able to transition over to almost anything!

    Back to you...
