When the originals wore out in my bathroom sink, I thought finding replacements for the very old fixtures would be tough. I was relieved to find these without too much searching, and they were easy to install. Perfect fit, and no more fighting the bathroom sink. Read more
These fit right--and that's saying something, since I've had poor results with a different brand. That other brand didn't include the seats, either, which is a problem, because the seats are important. Why so many o-rings? I don't know, but I messed up a couple on my first tries, so it was good to have some extra. The washers and o-rings are a bit tight when they're first put in, but opening and closing the valves a few times gets them fitted in. A bit of silicone-based plumber's grease on the washers, o-rings, seats, and threads helps, too. The attached photo shows, from left to right, the cold-water valve stem (not yet disassembled), the rebuild kit, and the hot-water valve stem (disassembled). Read more
Delivered promptly. I found I needed to replacece the entire stem to make the faucet work smoothly. Read more

Since Crane was bought by American Standard and their entire line replaced, I thought I'd never find replacement parts. But, these Aqua Seal seats, rings and rubber seals fit perfectly. I had to watch a Youtube video or two to figure out how to replace the O-rings, but the rubber seal end-caps and the seats were easy to replace. At first, I had tried "filing down" the original seats to remove the nicks and corrosion. That was a waste of time and ultimately didn't work. It only took a few seconds to screw in these new seats and it was like a new faucet; well, not really. . .but as good as one could hope for with a 60-year old fixture. Read more
