American Standard066288-0070A VALVE REBUILD KIT

I have no complaints about the Cadet faucet or the quality of these parts, I just wish that the parts fit my Cadet faucet.There's nothing quite like working on a bath faucet buried within a ceramic tiled wall with no documentation as to its model. I was able to identify the brand as American Standard using Danco's stem finder, but not the exact model of "Cadet" series (there are at least 4 different variations.)THIS pair of valve stems is made for faucets which have hot and cold valves that open in OPPOSITE directions. Additionally, the splined shafts will NOT fit the handles of an AS faucet which has hot and cold valves that both open counter-clockwise. Nothing on American Standard's support website or in this listing makes that clear; there is no faucet-to-parts index.I'm guessing from comments that the 066288-0070A is for Cadet faucets with two counter-clockwise opening faucets. I am unsure whether those are for kitchen/lav or bath/shower faucets.-----Repair:After turning off the water, removing the valve stems was straight-forward.The hardest part was freeing the metal balls of the ceramic cross-handle assembly handles from the stems. I shot PB Blaster through the threaded holes of the handle retaining screws and from behind with the valves fully opened and let it work for a half hour. I applied tension to each ball and tapped it with a rubber mallet, turning it 90 degrees between taps. This took 2 minutes per handle.The retaining nuts of the valves have 2 flats, not 6. I used a Crescent wrench and a rubber mallet to break the nuts free. Replacing the seats took a 7/32" Allen key wrench and a "cheater" - the Crescent wrench.That's when I discovered that the repair kit was the wrong model.I was able to replace simpler parts - the long seats and the washers. Both these parts are available from Amazon: B0040HOR2Q and B000DZH8V6. Other brand seats would fit, but IMO the rough chrome finish AS seats are more durable than the all-brass versions of other manufacturers. (The kitchen/lav models use a short seat: B004JK1YB6).I wire-brushed the calcium buildup off the threads of the original stems, removed the fragments of the old Nu-Seals, cleaned the old grease off the stems and lubricated them and the replacement Nu-Seals with plumbers silicone. (Plumbers silicone is food grade and safe for all plumbing repairs) I installed the domed washers facing with the cones facing toward the stem's ends and snapped the seals in place.With each valve full-open, I threaded the stems into the body and tightened them just enough to be sure they were seated. At this point I closed the valves and turned on the water supply. No leaks or drips. I cleaned up the handle assemblies, screwed them in place and snapped the H/C buttons on the handles.Actual working time: under 1 hour. Parts searching: 4 hours. Total elapsed time 2 days, 5 hours. :-C

Llego tal como lo compre y en el tiempo exacto.Cubrio mis expectativas

fits great works great and is a great value for the money.

Product works, was very happy. Only issue is that two valves are in each kit and does not state that as a Valve Rebuild Kit usually means one valve. So only need one kit to replace hot and cold water valves....

worked great in an old shower. Lowes, ace, tru value, and the mom and pop shops didn't have it in stock. Amazon came in clutch again for this home repair.

Easy installation and works great.

Bought the set to replace leaky valves in an old bathtub faucet set. Only one valve was correct. There are slight differences in the rubber gasket part of the valve.

it is all okay. it fitted perfect, good quality. thanks a lot. my problem was solved as I wanted. thanks.
