I just bought a perforated drain grill for my bathtub. It doesn't have a hole for a screw to go through, but it's got a small (4 cm diameter) three petalled metal flower shape on the bottom. What's that for? Wish I could attach a photo, but Groups won't let me attach.

Is it actually a replacement bath waste, or maybe it's just a hair
strainer the fits within the existing waste outlet?

Wish I could attach a photo, but Groups won't let me

If you have a google account to use groups, the same account will work
in google photos, upload your pic there and make a public link to it,
just include the link in your message.

You're free to put the photo on anything you like
like dropbox and include a link to that in your post.

Some popup wastes have three fins hidden down the hole, perhaps it is to
guide those.

Most people just put it on dropbox and add a link. No help to me of course
but some things are designed to stop large debris from going down.
