A shower handle on this unit has a press fit attachment, not a screw. The handle has apparently come off several times and the press-fit will no longer keep the handle attached.
Short of replacing the entire mixer valve, how can this be fixed?
I could drill in from the face of the handle, or the bottom, but the mixer valve shaft has nothing to screw into.

Suggestions?

I've never heard of a press fit for Delta.
How about a picture 800 pixels or less of what you have. You can normally buy new handles and trims.

thank you for the note.
center shaft has only a press fitting for the handle attachment--no screw.

Thank you.
That is good news.
Can I order from you, or from delta?

Thanks.
