Jerich 42380 Square Broach Stem 4.25 Inches

Product Description

The JERICH 42380 is a square broach stem measuring 4.25 inches, used in valve and faucet repair applications. A broach stem engages a broached valve seat or handle socket through a precision-fit tapered square profile, allowing reliable torque transfer without slipping or rounding. This type of stem is a standard repair component installed by licensed plumbers during faucet or valve rebuilds in both residential and light commercial plumbing systems.

The JERICH 42380 square broach stem is suited for valve and faucet repair work where the original stem requires replacement due to wear, corrosion, or damage. It fits into broach-style valve bodies that accept a square tapered stem profile. Plumbers working on older faucet and valve assemblies commonly encounter this stem configuration in compression-style and globe-style valves.

• Square broach profile provides positive engagement with broached valve handles and seats
• 4.25-inch stem length suits standard valve body depths

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling the valve or faucet body. Remove the worn or damaged stem and verify the broach profile and stem length match before installing the replacement. Follow applicable IPC guidelines for valve repair and reassembly.
