Non-Turned as I am well aware of the problem. But every once in a while you get one. Usually when the home owner tried a repair or a wanabe tried it and did not suceed.

The reality comes when you completly pull the valve bodies from the china and can't find any washers to fit. Or washers soft enough to seal against then china. Sometime you can find a Mack washer but I think I made have said this before. The orange Wolverine Brass hand tighten trap washers do just fine. Insert a 1-1/4 into a 1-1/2 and you have almost the OEM Crane original composition, size and bevel.

To the guy that tore it out, you just removed one of the best wall hung lavatories ever made.
I cut mine out of sheet rubber. I have not rebuilt one in over 15 years and dont expect anyone to pay me to rebuild one but ya neva know....I would if they wanted.

Crane was it until the whole bunch of the heads went down in a plane crash...started a policy of never sending everyone on the same plane. I liked it better than Chicago faucet.

The guy that has all this junk is an old Jewish guy that inherited the plumbing hardware store from his father... I have been takeing my plumbing junk into him for decades, so has everyone else in this town, he literally has a whole storeroom in the back building full of antique toilets, lids, low boy toilets from the 40s, some of those lavatories, and many other very odd ball...... hard to find fixtures....


what you see is what you get...AS IS

Call Larry at..American Hardware... 317=637-0294..

just dont act too interested or the price could tripple instantly
