In my case, I only use it for the faucets on my sinks since it isn't the style I use for my tub. There's a chance you can use it if you have a two handle faucet.
It does not appear that these valves will work. Delta faucets are the only ones that have them. If you want Whirlpool/Rainbow faucets, you might check if Delta makes them.
There is certainly a similarity between the two. Was it able to work for you?
In the case of a Delta faucet that has two handles, this is likely the item you need. For a joystick or one handle faucet, you may need a different item.

I bought the "same" kit from another chain store to repair a Delta faucet that was leaking. There was a leak that was fixed with store brand adhesive, but after a few days, a drip formed in the faucet. It was removed and reassembled, and eventually replaced with another set that came with the purchase (there were 4), which I then installed. The leak continues to drip. When I bought the Delta brand, there was a difference between the stem and the standard stem A beta version is available. There is a metal piece on the btm of Delta, whereas the other is made entirely of Installing the Delta parts made all the difference! I have not experienced any.
We were able to buy a complete set for a reasonable price. one side is done, you might as well do the other, even if it does not leak. The VicGrip was used to remove the cartridge after removing the locking nut. When you get out, note the position of the cartridge and place it right behind the Be prepared as far as flash lights or headlights are concerned. Take out the washer and spring using a small awl or screwdriver, being careful not to scratch the internal surfaces. Next, place a tread washer (larger end down) on the tip of the little screwdriver, then hold onto it with your index finger and insert it into the Fall the spring and the washer into the You should put some special lube on the oring that is on the cartridge, then attach it to the top of the washer. Rest of the details you can figure out on your own. 4 stars if instructions are not provided.
If a part has been discontinued, OEM parts should be used. A seat, springs, and washers that you need at this price point are also OEM. This is just about as good as a knockoff product, except that you have all the components you need.
When buying aftermarket, you will save a buck, but will probably have to replace sooner rather than later due to wear and tear.
It also has a few more large openings to spread out the water flow. This will only confuse you. Don't be fooled by rings you won't need. There will be a need for a special removal tool with this kit, as this does not come with it. If you keep the original and can still find it, or if you like me previously bought the $80 version that does come with the tool, then you can still find the original.
As I stared at and compared the Delta pieces with the old shower components, it seemed that they were compatible. When the kit arrived, I was able to compare the parts side by side to make sure they matched. During the repair, a rapid halt to the dripping was made. By applying a tiny amount of silicone grease to keep the parts lubricated, I might be able to prevent having to do this again in the Currently, I am not sure if the Delta product I repaired was a Delta product, but the parts from Delta fit smooth as if they were made for the unit.
The problem is that this person ordered the wrong kit because it looked close to perfect. It was impossible to use them because of slight differences between their major components. I don't know how to do it so- The rubber pieces on the bottom and rings worked perfectly when installed on the original large plastic gadget. Please read
We took care of the material, delivery, and overrun As far as the quality of the kit is concerned, the kit was fine. Just make sure to order the right kit.
There is a leak in my delta faucet so I need those. The entire process took just 10 minutes, and not a drop of fluid leaked! The kit includes everything you need. Other than that, everything will be fine. It costs half as much as.
There is a particular installation that needs them, but mine did not. Using silicone grease on the valve seals and the small O ring around the valve, I made sure that the valve was sealed. I believe these are original Delta parts, so I am confident they will perform as advertised. Although I've seen generics available for a lot less money, and I'm certain some of them are good, these seem to last for years, so I wouldn't risk taking a chance on a generic in the first place.
