Default INSTALLING KITCHEN SINK

What will the consequences be if I don't use plumber's putty around
the drain before inserting it into the sink hole?


If you are actually refering to the basket, then it's best to check the
documentation that came with the unit and also the sink documentation.
Most baskets (around here anyways) these days come with their own sealing
gasket and plummers putty isn't required. If you omit using either of them
however, as others have mentioned, you're only asking for trouble in the
long run.



Can you overtighten a fiber glass sink drain?



Anything can be overtightened....... grin
