Danco, Inc. Tub Spout Diverter Repair Kit Chrome

Works great to fix our problems of shower faucet. Just be sure to use a file to clean up the surface that the washer ultimately presses down on. Easy to assemble. Just needed some needle nose pliers to remove the old piece.

Fixed the faucet in my mobile home tub as advertised.

After 20 years the shower diverter in guest bathroom was leaking badly & lost a lot of flow to shower head. This kit fixed it like new. Not a bad idea to just replace the spout & diverter. Old spout has to come off anyway. You’ll need plumbers tape (Teflon tape), a large rag to protect spout during removal, and a wide jaw pipe wrench, pliers or vice grips that open large enough to grab old spout. User tip: easy job if you a little handy & have right tools on hand. You will need to remove old spout. Not hard, but won’t come off by hand. Wrap a large rag or towel around it so you won’t damage the finish on spout. Using a large pipe wrench or large pliers or vice grips turn the spout counter clockwise. (Lefty loosey) it should come off easily. Follow instructions to take out old diverter parts and install new ones. IMPORTANT: Clean off old plumbers tape on water outlet and put on several layers of new Teflon tape. Screw it back in place clockwise until tight and pointing straight down. Your done.

Great service and quick delivery. Nice product. Unfortunately does not fit my Kohler. The “tines” are shorter per the pictures. The thickness of the wastegate is also a problem but grinding it down will just move the tines further away. Kohler doesn’t sell it and none of the big box stores in my area carry it. I put the rubber insert in my old wastegate and it fixed about 90% of the problem (wastegate has some wear too.)

This works great as a replacement part if your tub spout wont stop leaking water when trying to shower. Ours (tub spout) was corroded unfortunately and I had to get a replacement from the company, so this specific part didn't help in our situation, however it matched the new one exactly. I would recommend!!

This kit has everything you need to repair your tub spout diverter. However, when replacing mine, I found that the prongs that hold the diverter knob shaft are, as several past reviewers have also said, too short. A great deal of leverage is required to spread the prongs apart enough, and the prongs were getting increasingly mangled as I tried to spread them apart with a flat screwdriver. Eventually, I gave up and used my existing diverter gate (which has nice lengthy prongs) with the new washer from the kit inserted. Fortunately, this worked fine. Thus, I only really needed a new diverter washer, and the other two parts of the kit (gate and knob) were not used.

Who doesn't love an easy $5 fix?! After our shower tub diverter started leaking so badly there was barely any water pressure in the shower, we couldn't use it anymore. I looked up the issue and found that it was likely an easy fix, watched a few youtube videos and then ordered this kit. I fixed our diverter in less than 10 mins with a few simple tools and didn't even need to take the tub spout off. I used pliers to pry off the old plastic part, used a flat file to make sure the inside of the spout was free of any hard mineral deposits, then popped the new rubber gasket in the new plastic housing and worked it back onto the metal pin. So easy and my husband was shocked when I had this project done in just a few minutes! I would definitely recommend this easy DIY repair kit. Very satisfying to fix things yourself!

Worked like a charm. Old one corroded out. This has the diverted working like new.

This my second time buying this diverter kit (for different bathrooms). Works great, easy to install. In some spouts, you might have to file it a bit so it fits

We were wondering if we should call a plumber. Im glad i didn't! Found this product in a youtube video to fix my shower which wasn’t working properly. Was able to easily fix it myself. Thanks again!

Fit perfectly, I generally don't have much luck with the 'fits most' (except yours) but this worked well. Price is high for a 2$ part but beats the alternative.

Installation rapide.

Yes...my shower didn't work for a year, I found this on Amazon and fixed it by myself in no time, easy to install and it worked! I can finally use the shower again
