Kohler K-GP77006-RP GP77006-rp Ceramic Valve, One Size, Rough Plate

I did not expect this part available, so I was so happy to get it and the part perfectly fit.

Repair faucet

This part was recommended by Amazon when I purchased my faucet. This part belongs in a bathroom shower. I never used it and was not able to return it because Amazon wouldnt take it back.

Good product

Unfortunately, my location has some pretty hard water, so Ive had to replace these valves about once every 8-15 years or so. But this replacement valved fixed our stuck bathroom faucet valve just fine. The hard part is getting the cartridge out of the valve body. My setup is for a widespread faucet, in which the valves (the discontinued Kohler Taboret style) are each mounted separately into the countertop. Turning the 5/8 nut on top with a long socket head only results in loosening and spinning the whole valve body in the countertop. The solution was to disconnect the valve body completely from the water supply, removing it from the countertop and mounting it in the biggest vice I own. With a little careful effort the cartridge could then be unscrewed. While you have everthing apart, grab the vinegar and take the time to clean all the nasty lime deposits off.

Works great.

Perfect replacement. Works great!

Exactly the right part I needed. Quick too.

very nice and will buy again

Product as described. Harder to install than expected but thats based on the design and not the replacement part.
