Claim:
A head fitting adapted for connection to a bathtub having an overflow opening in a waste water drainage system, the head fitting comprising: a molded elbow-shaped body constructed of a polymeric material and defining an interior flow passage therethrough, the body having an annular flange at one end thereof defining an open mouth for sealed engagement against the side wall of a bathtub over the overflow opening of the bathtub, a cylindrical collar at the other end defining an open throat for connecting the body to the waste water drainage system, and a selectively removable test plug integrally molded within the flow passage and inset from the open mouth of the flange so as to completely seal and close the flow passage between the open mouth of the flange and the open throat of the collar, the test plug being formed as an integral part of the body that can be physically broken away from the body and removed to open the flow passage so that the test plug constitutes means for leak testing the drainage system when the plug is integrally disposed within the flow passage of the body.
