Q Do you have the repair kits for thus vavve?A
We do offer repair kits for all of our valves. However, it's important to note that unless you bought the valve from us, there is a very high chance that our repair kit will not work with your valve. Valve seats and stems are specific to the manufacturer of the valve.
We recommend that you reach out to the manufacturer or distributor that you originally purchased the valve from to be certain the replacement kit will meet your needs.
