Jones Stephens c05048 Upper Brass Lift Wire 8 in 25pk

Product Description

The JONES STEPHENS c05048 is a brass lift wire used in toilet flush valve assemblies. It connects the trip lever to the flapper or tank ball, transmitting the mechanical action that initiates a flush cycle. At 8 inches in length, this wire fits standard residential toilet tank configurations. Sold in a box of 25, it is sized for plumbing contractors and service professionals who replace lift wires during toilet repairs or routine maintenance calls. The all-brass construction resists corrosion and maintains durability in constant-contact water tank environments.

This lift wire is suited for residential toilet tank repair applications. It is typically installed when the existing lift wire is corroded, bent, or broken, causing incomplete flush cycles or a handle that does not engage the flapper properly. The box quantity of 25 makes it practical for plumbing supply stock or multi-unit service calls where multiple fixtures need servicing in a single visit.
