BrassCraft SF1336 Graphite Packing Rope

BrassCraft SF1336 is a graphite twist stem packing rope sized at 3/32" x 24" for bath faucet repairs. It creates a leak-free seal on faucet stem packing nuts during maintenance. This part suits homeowners and plumbers fixing dripping valve stems in residential bathrooms. It is not for buyers who need a complete cartridge replacement or a different diameter packing material.

Installation and Common Issues

The rope wraps around the stem beneath the packing nut and compresses when the nut is tightened. No special tools are required beyond standard wrenches used for faucet disassembly. Problems occur if the old packing is not fully removed or if the rope is cut too short, leaving a gap that leaks. Over-tightening the nut can also damage the stem threads.

Questions about this item

How do I know the 3/32" graphite rope has sealed the faucet stem packing nut properly after installation?

Turn the water supply back on and operate the faucet handle through its full range; no water should appear at the packing nut or around the stem, confirming the graphite twist packing has created a leak-free seal.

What comes with the SF1336 packing rope and do I need any extra parts to complete the repair?

The package contains one 24-inch length of 3/32-inch graphite twist stem packing rope; you supply the adjustable wrench or packing nut tool needed to remove the old packing and compress the new rope into the stuffing box.
