Larsen Supply Co. S-1031-3 Tub Shower Stem B Broach

Product Description

The LARSEN SUPPLY CO. S-1031-3 is a replacement tub and shower stem designed for hot and cold valve service. Built to fit the Price Pfister and Beaux Art 6103 valve body series, this stem uses a B broach configuration for proper handle engagement. Licensed plumbers and journeymen install this part during faucet rebuilds and shower valve overhauls where the original stem is worn, corroded, or cracked. At 3.05 pounds per package of 6 units, the S-1031-3 is stocked in multi-unit packs suited for service vans and supply houses handling repeat repair calls.

This stem is a direct-fit replacement for Price Pfister and Beaux Art 6103 tub and shower valve assemblies requiring B broach stems on both the hot and cold sides. It is well suited for residential bathroom plumbing repairs where original OEM stems are no longer readily available through the original manufacturer channel. Service plumbers handling older fixtures commonly keep this stem on hand for callback and preventive maintenance work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local IPC requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before removing the existing stem. Inspect the valve seat for wear or damage and dress or replace it as needed before installing the new stem. Do not overtighten the stem packing nut, as this can damage the stem threads or distort the packing washer.
