Jerich 160400 Stem Extender Brass Euro 20 Pt

Product Description

The JERICH 160400 is a brass stem extender designed to increase the reach of a valve stem in plumbing repair and replacement applications. Stem extenders are used when a replacement cartridge or stem does not fully engage the handle or when valve depth requires additional length to operate correctly. This part features a Euro 20-point spline interface, which determines handle fitment and must be matched to the corresponding handle or cartridge. Licensed plumbers and experienced service technicians are the primary installers of this component.

The JERICH 160400 is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing service work, particularly in faucet repair scenarios where the original valve stem does not extend far enough to accept the handle properly. It is commonly used during faucet rebuilds, cartridge replacements, and retrofit installations where stem depth or length is a limiting factor. The Euro 20-point spline configuration is a widely used interface in imported and domestic faucet lines.

Key Features

• Brass construction for corrosion resistance and durability in wet environments
• Euro 20-point spline interface for proper handle engagement
• Designed to extend valve stem reach during faucet repair or replacement
• Compact form factor suited for tight valve body clearances

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement stem extender for faucets and valves using a Euro 20-point spline stem interface. Verify spline count and stem diameter before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified service technician. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling the faucet or valve. Confirm the spline count and thread engagement of the extender match the existing stem and handle before final assembly. Follow applicable local plumbing codes, including IPC guidelines, for faucet repair and component replacement.
