Larsen Supply Co. S-404-2NL Cold Lavatory Stem No Lead

Product Description

The LARSEN SUPPLY CO., INC. S-404-2NL is a cold-side lavatory stem designed to replace the Crane 3012 stem with an A broach configuration. This replacement stem restores proper cold water flow control in lavatory faucets that use the Crane 3012 stem pattern. It is a no-lead compliant part, meeting Vermont and California AB-1953 requirements for lead content in plumbing products. Licensed plumbers and experienced service techs use this stem during faucet rebuild and repair work on residential and light commercial lavatory faucets. It ships individually packaged on a card, with six units per package for supply house stocking.

This stem is suited for lavatory faucet repair applications where the Crane 3012 cold-side stem has worn, cracked, or stripped. The A broach seat configuration is a standard interface used in older Crane-pattern faucets found in residential bathrooms. This part is appropriate for plumbers performing faucet rebuilds in jurisdictions that require no-lead compliant components, including California and Vermont, where AB-1953 compliance is mandatory for faucet parts that contact potable water.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling the faucet. Remove the existing stem using a stem wrench and inspect the seat before installing the replacement. Do not overtighten the stem packing nut, as this can damage the packing and cause leaks.
