The KOHLER 131780 is a replacement faucet stem designed for use in KOHLER faucet assemblies. The stem is a core internal component of a faucet valve body, controlling water flow and temperature by rotating within the valve seat. This part is installed by licensed plumbers and experienced service technicians during routine faucet repair or rebuild work. At 0.005 pounds, it is a lightweight precision component that must seat correctly to prevent leaks and ensure smooth handle operation.
This stem is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a KOHLER-compatible faucet stem replacement is required. It is typically installed during faucet rebuilds when the existing stem shows wear, cracking, or stripping that causes dripping or handle slippage. Plumbers servicing KOHLER fixture lines will encounter this stem in standard valve repair scenarios.
Designed as an OEM-style replacement faucet stem for compatible KOHLER faucet valve assemblies. Verify fitment against the specific KOHLER fixture model and valve body before installation.
A licensed plumber should shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling the faucet valve body. Remove the handle and packing nut carefully to extract the worn stem without damaging the valve seat. Install the replacement stem hand-tight first, then snug with an appropriate basin wrench or deep socket, avoiding overtightening that could crack the valve body. Verify for leaks at the packing nut after restoring water supply.
