The Woodford 74521 16" OAL Stem is a critical component used in outdoor faucets and hydrants. Let’s explore its details:

  • Function: The stem assembly controls the flow of water in the faucet. When you turn the handle, the stem moves up or down, allowing water to flow or shutting it off completely.

  • Design: The Woodford 74521 stem assembly typically consists of a threaded rod (the stem) with a washer or seal at the bottom. The stem extends through the faucet body and connects to the handle.

  • Installation: To install the stem assembly, it is threaded into the faucet body. The washer or seal ensures a watertight connection. The handle is then attached to the top of the stem.

  • Maintenance: Regular inspection is essential to check for wear, corrosion, or damage. If the stem assembly leaks or becomes difficult to turn, it may need replacement.
