Larsen Supply 02-1712P Shower Valve Stem Packing 3/8in Pack of 10

Product Description

The LARSEN SUPPLY CO., INC. 02-1712P is a cloth-inserted rubber stem packing designed for shower valve service. Cut in a square-cut style, this packing provides a reliable seal around valve stems in shower applications. It measures 3/8 inches by 13/16 inches by 3/8 inches and is sold in a bag of 10 individual units. The cloth-inserted rubber construction resists compression set and maintains a consistent seal under typical shower system operating pressures. Plumbers and service technicians install this packing when repairing leaking or weeping shower valve stems.

This stem packing is suited for residential and light commercial shower valve repair work. It is appropriate for use in standard stem-type shower valves where square-cut packing is specified. The unit-of-measure is each, sold in packages of 10, making it practical for service trucks and supply inventory. Having multiple units per bag supports back-to-back service calls without requiring a separate order for each repair.
