Jerich LF459771 Ceramic Cartridge 16 Point 1-6

Product Description

The JERICH LF459771 is a ceramic valve cartridge designed for use in plumbing fixtures where reliable flow control and long service life are required. Ceramic cartridges use hardened ceramic discs to regulate water flow and temperature, offering greater durability and resistance to wear compared to standard rubber-seated cartridges. This 16-point cartridge measures 2.0625 inches in length and carries a 1-6 index designation, which identifies the spline count and orientation used for proper seating within the valve body. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified service technicians.

This cartridge is suited for residential and light commercial faucet repair and replacement applications. The 16-point spline configuration and 2.0625-inch body length are used to match the original cartridge seating in compatible single-handle or multi-handle faucet valve bodies. Technicians should verify the point count, body length, and index number against the existing cartridge before installation to confirm fitment.

Key Features

• Ceramic disc construction for extended wear resistance and reduced leak potential
• 16-point spline drive for precise alignment and secure seating in the valve body
• 1-6 index designation for correct orientation during installation
• 2.0625-inch cartridge body length for accurate dimensional replacement
• Lead-free construction indicated by LF prefix in part number

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement ceramic cartridge for compatible residential and light commercial faucet valve bodies requiring a 16-point, 2.0625-inch ceramic cartridge with a 1-6 index designation.

Installation Notes

Shut off the water supply at the stop valves beneath the fixture or at the main before beginning cartridge replacement. Depressurize the line by opening the faucet handle fully before removing the old cartridge. A licensed plumber or qualified technician should perform this work where local codes require it. Verify cartridge orientation using the index mark before seating to avoid restricted flow or cross-flow conditions.
