Identify faucet and shower parts by their function, model and connection details. Use the diagrams to name the component you need, then match the exact product revision before requesting spare parts or a revised supply package.
By Quality Sanitary Ware · Published · Updated
Include the complete product reference, a clear component photo, dimensions, interface or thread details and the required quantity. Mark whether you need an individual part or a replacement assembly. Keep the approved compatibility record with the order for future service.
Tables can be scrolled horizontally on smaller screens.
| Part | Role in a typical assembly | Record for a spare-parts request |
|---|---|---|
| Handle and fixing | User control and attachment | Model, movement, fixing detail and finish |
| Cartridge | Water-control component within a compatible valve | Exact reference, dimensions and interface |
| Spout / outlet | Directs the water outlet | Mounting, reach and model identity |
| Aerator or outlet insert | Insert at a compatible faucet outlet | Thread or retention design and insert reference |
| Mounting hardware | Secures the faucet to the fixture | Shank, nut, washer and supported deck scope |
Use the manufacturer's model-specific parts record when ordering. Delta's parts identification route illustrates why a product identity matters before choosing a replacement. The table does not mean every faucet has the same arrangement.
A shower head may have an inlet connection, body, face or spray plate and outlet nozzles. A fixed head may use a moving joint, while a hand shower connects to a hose and is supported by a holder or rail. Filter construction, selectors and removable faces vary by design; do not assume they are present on every head.
Keep the hose, sealing washer, holder, arm and wall connection separate from the head itself. A mixer or thermostatic control belongs to the upstream valve assembly, not automatically inside the shower head. Check the actual QSW configuration's included-component list before requesting a complete replacement package.
Use the labelled diagram to identify the component family, then link it to the actual assembly. This example is a buyer request for 10 service kits; quantities are illustrative.
| Parent product and configuration | Diagram label / part | Interface record | Requested quantity |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1050584560218 five-mode fixed-holder kit | Hose / washer: 1.5 m hose | Match both ends and seals to this configuration's hose drawing | 10 |
| Same fixed-holder kit | Holder: fixed wall holder | Retain fixing-centre drawing and handset seating dimensions | 10 |
| 1049663109937 four-outlet set | Additional assembly: spray gun and coiled hose | Match gun/hose connections to the four-outlet parts record | 10 pairs |
The published kit record establishes these components and the 1.5 m hose length. QSW can match the interface drawing from the order reference and component photos; a generic thread size is not assigned to an unidentified part. Include the original revision and finish when requesting the replacement quotation.
For each line, send the parent product reference, selected configuration, spare-part name, dimensions or marked drawing, required finish and quantity. Attach a photo showing the interface as well as the visible front. Ask whether the part is a direct replacement for the approved version or requires a new assembly review.
Split cosmetic parts, water-contact parts and mounting components in the schedule. Record any required material or product documents against the offered spare rather than copying the parent's certification claim. Use the purchasing glossary for terminology and the material guide for component-specific construction questions.
No. It explains component names. Use a model-specific drawing and part reference for ordering.
Send your chosen models, installation requirements, destination and quantities. QSW will organise the product specifications, applicable model documents, spare-part schedule and packing proposal with your manufacturing quotation.
