Please help me identify my leaking tub valve (steady stream coming from the tub filler faucet). I would like to repair this by myself as I believe it is most likely bad rubber gasket(s) but I need help with the manufacturer so that I can source the gaskets. Thanks for your time! Chris

Valves like that do NOT have "gaskets". You find the manufacturer and replace the entire cartridge. you will probably have to remove the cartridge and take it to a supply store to identify a source for it.

That looks like an American Standard R110SS cartridge. Google the image for it and compare for yourself. You will need to replace the cartridge. Maybe American Standard customer service can assist in getting one if you have limited resources in your area. Be sure to shut off the water to the shower/tub before removing.
