central brass body to price pfister

Author: jessilin (NY)

Hi,

Can anyone help me? I have a really old central brass shower body. It has 3 handles. I'd like to change just the trim to be an oil rubbed bronze but central brass doesn't make it. I found one from price pfister but the it only fits stems that are 12 spline, I purchased it and it didn't fit. Can I just replace my stems with the price pfister stems? Will they fit? I can't change out the body because that would mean breaking down the wall. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Author: North Carolina Plumber (NC) No, the stems from the Price Pfister will not fit the Central Brass faucet. You'll likely have to replace the entire faucet.

Author: asktom (MT) 12 point to 16 point broach adapters exist as do various fit-all escutheon nipples, so it might be possible depending on exactly what trim you want to put on. But, it would require a perfect storm of a good specialty plumbing store, a plumber on intimate terms with Mr. M. Mouse, and luck. Better to consider plan "B".
