Hi,
The packing nut of the 1 1/4 gate valve made by he Red-White Valve Corporation (# 274) felt apart. I had to turn off the heat.
Before calling the plumber, I thought about a simple solution to put a new packing nut. The RWV Corp. doesn't make these valves anymore so I order the same size valve made by Bluefin https://www.supplyhouse.com/sh/control/product/~product_id=GTVT125
Do you think that this will fit or should I call the plumber to change the entire valve? Thanks.
