F-29 Delta Single Lever Faucet Bushing and Ball Retainer Bolt

Product Features:
Compatibility: Critical components of the Faucet Repair Kit for Delta Single Lever Handle Faucets (DELTA REPAIR KIT). They are used to replace old or worn original parts to resolve issues like faucet leakage or rough operation.
Works with Cam System (Cam for crystal handle): The bolt-like part (often part of the stem/valve control) passes through the faucet body and works with the Cam and Ball Valve located beneath the handle to control water flow. It transmits the handle’s movement to the ball valve for flow and temperature control. The ring-shaped bushing (left side) likely provides support or sealing for this bolt.
Durable Plastic Material: Made from durable plastic materials, capable of withstanding wear from water flow and daily operation, ensuring long-lasting and stable performance. The threaded portion provides a secure connection, and the wing-like feature at the base of the bolt (right side) may provide grip for tools during installation or prevent rotation.
Precise Threading and Structure: The fine threads on the bolt ensure it screws accurately into the faucet body. The inner and outer diameters of the ring bushing are also precisely designed to ensure a tight fit with other faucet components.

Functions & Benefits:
Secures Ball Valve and Handle: The bolt-like part (likely the stem/ball retainer) passes through the faucet handle and cam, ultimately securing the ball valve. This ensures handle motion is effectively transferred to the ball valve, controlling the opening, closing, and mixing of water flow.
Provides Stability and Sealing: The ring-shaped bushing may be used to provide a smooth surface, reduce wear, and in some cases, act as a seal to prevent water from leaking around the stem.
Repairs Loose Handle or Leaks: Wear or damage to these parts can lead to a loose handle, difficult operation, or leakage from around the handle base. Replacing them effectively resolves these issues.
Extends Faucet Lifespan: By replacing these critical wear parts, the expense of replacing the entire faucet can be avoided, effectively extending the overall service life of the existing fixture.

Application Areas:
Home Faucet Repair: Suitable for repair and parts replacement of Delta brand single-handle faucets used in bathtubs, showers, kitchens, or lavatories within a residential setting.
