  • TypeShower Curtain Rods
  • Zinc die cast construction ensures lasting durability

  • No diverter design provides clean, classic water flow

Replacement Tub Spout

The Kingston Brass K187A5 replaces an existing tub spout with a five-inch zinc die-cast body. It connects to standard 1/2 inch IPS plumbing and contains no diverter valve. The oil-rubbed bronze finish resists tarnishing and corrosion for lasting appearance.

Thermals Noise Power Draw

This plumbing fixture produces no heat, noise or electrical draw during normal use. Water flow and temperature are controlled by the existing valve assembly behind the wall. The spout itself is a passive outlet with no moving parts.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Under continuous water flow the spout maintains a steady stream without vibration or finish degradation. The zinc construction and corrosion-resistant coating are designed for a lifetime of performance in daily bathing conditions. No mechanical wear occurs because there is no diverter mechanism to cycle.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1/2" IPS connection on the K187A5 tub spout, and what is the common mistake?

Thread the spout onto the 1/2" IPS nipple by hand, then tighten gently with a wrench using a cloth to protect the Oil Rubbed Bronze finish. The common mistake is over-tightening, which can crack the zinc die-cast body or strip the threads.

What maintenance will the Oil Rubbed Bronze finish on the K187A5 tub spout need over time?

Wipe the finish dry after each use with a soft cloth to prevent mineral build-up. Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads; they strip the protective coating and accelerate tarnishing. The premium finish resists corrosion, but harsh chemicals will damage it permanently.

What is the first limitation of the zinc die-cast construction on the K187A5 under sustained hot-water use?

Zinc die-cast conducts heat quickly, so the spout body becomes very hot during prolonged flow, posing a scald risk. It also expands slightly with heat; repeated thermal cycles can eventually loosen the 1/2" IPS connection if not checked periodically.
