Frequently asked questions

Common questions about DEARBORN BRASS from 3G Electric.

What materials are Dearborn Brass split-flange escutcheons made from?

Dearborn Brass split-flange escutcheons are constructed from chrome-plated plastic. This material provides a silver finish and corrosion resistance suitable for covering pipe penetrations in walls or floors. The split design allows installation around existing pipes without disassembly. Available models fit pipe sizes including 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, and 1 inch, with either push-in or threaded connection types. The chrome plating offers a decorative and protective surface, while the plastic base keeps the component lightweight. These escutcheons are intended for use in plumbing systems where a finished appearance and protection are required. They are not rated for pressure containment; their function is primarily cosmetic and protective.

Are Dearborn Brass spuds compatible with all flush valves?

Dearborn Brass spuds are designed for compatibility with Universal series flush valves. This indicates they are intended to fit a broad range of standard flush valve connections, but compatibility should be verified against the specific flush valve model and fixture. The spuds are made of brass, which offers corrosion resistance in plumbing systems. They are available for toilets and urinals, with manufacturer part numbers such as 4029 and 4030. When selecting a spud, confirm the connection size and thread type match the flush valve and fixture. The Universal series designation suggests interchangeability with many common flush valves, but always refer to the manufacturer's specifications for assurance.

What is the purpose of a Dearborn Brass overflow plate with lever?

A Dearborn Brass overflow plate with lever covers the bathtub overflow drain opening and controls water level via an attached trip-lever mechanism. The plate features a zinc trim plate with a chrome finish, providing durability and a decorative appearance. It is a two-hole design, compatible with Universal series installations. The lever connects to the drain linkage, allowing the user to open or close the drain. This component is used in bathtub assemblies to prevent overflow and to facilitate draining. It is a replacement part for standard bathtub overflow systems. The zinc construction with chrome plating resists corrosion in humid environments. Installation requires access to the overflow opening and connection to the drain shoe.

What sizes of pipe do Dearborn Brass split-flange escutcheons fit?

Dearborn Brass split-flange escutcheons are available to fit several pipe sizes. Based on catalog items, they fit 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, and 1-inch pipes. For example, SKU 38VP19 fits 1/2-inch pipe with a threaded connection, SKU 38VP17 and 38VP20 fit 3/4-inch pipe with push-in and threaded connections respectively, and SKU 38VP18 fits 1-inch pipe with a push-in connection. The split design allows them to be installed around existing pipes without disconnecting the pipe. When selecting an escutcheon, match the pipe size and connection type to the application. These escutcheons are made of chrome-plated plastic and are intended for covering pipe penetrations in walls or floors.

What is the function of a Dearborn Brass flange spud washer?

A Dearborn Brass flange spud washer, such as MPN 7101, is a rubber component used to seal the connection between a toilet and a flush valve. It is part of the Universal compatible series, meaning it is designed to fit standard flush valve installations. The rubber material provides a watertight seal and accommodates minor irregularities in mating surfaces. This washer is used in commercial and institutional plumbing systems to prevent leaks at the spud connection. It is a replacement part that should be inspected periodically and replaced if worn or damaged. Proper installation ensures a secure seal and reliable flush valve operation. The washer is compatible with Dearborn Brass spuds and many other standard spuds.
