Marlin W2317 Cold Ceramic Cartridge Assembly

Product Description

The MARLIN W2317 is a cold ceramic cartridge assembly designed for use in faucet and valve applications where reliable flow control and long-term sealing performance are required. Ceramic disc cartridges provide a tight seal through the mechanical engagement of precision-ground ceramic discs, eliminating the wear associated with rubber washers. This type of cartridge is typically installed by licensed plumbers during faucet repair or new fixture installation. The W2317 handles cold-water supply lines and is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems.

Ceramic cartridge assemblies are commonly used in single-handle and two-handle faucets found in kitchens, bathrooms, and utility areas. The cold-side designation means this cartridge is matched to the cold water port of a compatible faucet body. Plumbers specify ceramic cartridge replacements to restore full shutoff function, eliminate drips, and extend fixture service life without replacing the entire faucet body. This assembly is intended for professional service and repair applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC guidelines. Shut off the cold water supply and relieve line pressure before removing the existing cartridge. Inspect the faucet body seat for debris or scoring before inserting the replacement cartridge. Confirm proper orientation of the cartridge before reassembly to ensure correct flow direction and shutoff function.
