Description of 88052 Bathroom Diverter 5 Inch Chrome

CLASSIC DESIGN - The Danco tub spout is ideal for replacing and updating your worn-out, non-functioning tub spout and has a universal design that ONLY FITS A THREADED PIPE connection; it DOES NOT FIT a copper pipe slip-fit connection. CONNECTION SIZE: This Danco diverter tub spout has 1⁄2 in. IPS inside threads and will fit a 4 in. – 4-1/2 in. stub out from tiled wall. DIVERTER INCLUDED: This tub spout includes a front diverter lift rod to allow water stream to flow downward into the tub or upward into showerhead. TUB SPOUT REACH: The bathtub faucet spout has a 4-1/2 in. reach. BUILT TO LAST: The durable metal construction provides strength, longevity and will endure the rigors of everyday use. BATHTUB SPOUT THREADED DIMENSIONS: The bathtub faucet spout metal threads measures 3-3/4 inch to threads from back of tub spout, so it is important to measure your stub out nipple to ensure it is at least 4 in. long. HASSLE-FREE INSTALLATION: You will need adjustable pliers and plumber sealing tape to help prevent leaks and provide a better seal during installation. (VIDEO SHOWS MODEL INSTALLATION NOT THE EXACT SAME PRODUCT). CHROME FINISH resists corrosion and tarnishing and will complement your existing bathroom fixtures

Large Replacement Unit

This block fits well and the switch disc seal is very good and there is no dripping from the faucet when you turn it on to shower.

Pros
  • THREAD DIMENSIONS: The metal threads of the tub faucet spout measure 3-3/4" to the thread from the back of the tub spout so it is important to measure the spout to ensure it is at least 4" long.
Cons
  • Slightly dented

It's just a shell: Rough Plumbing

I bought a brick and mortar spout to replace the original one on my bathtub but the finish didn't match so I went to Revain and bought this one.

Pros
  • CHROME FINISH resists corrosion and tarnishing and complements your existing plumbing
Cons
  • Not the best

Does not include all necessary parts for installation.

The Revain advertisement has a bathroom spout replacement video and instructions on how to install a spout adapter. This item does not include a spout adapter. The photo shows the old spout with the adapter installed and the new spout. My old spout had apparently turned to concrete over the years and could not be removed non-destructively. I suspect this is fairly common and I'm not sure I'd want to use the old one anyway as it's over 10 years old. So now I have to order a spout adapter to…

Pros
  • CLASSIC DESIGN - Danco Bath Spout is ideal for replacing and upgrading a worn out, non-functioning bath spout and has a universal design that only fits threaded pipe connections; it WILL NOT FIT slip-fit copper pipe fittings
Cons
  • Modern
