Hi guys,
We bought a used Moen two handle lavatory faucet on Craigslist that looks to be high quality.
Some of the threads were damaged- the threads where the brass nut attaches on one of the handles,... the nut that holds the cartridge in, under the handles themselves. We've been looking for the right tool to refile the threads and try to restore the faucet and be able to use it One person looked at it and guessed it was about 22 mm metric. Another person looked at it and said, no, that was wrong. Is this a standard thread in plumbing fixtures? Or specific to Moen? Would a local plumbing shop be able to use a die or file or something to help us?
Advice appreciated!
