Water faucet part (stem&bonnet)

[Bigk_54]

The handle snapped off of our faucet on the shower, I've done a search and find its a stem and bonnet assembly but there seems to be many of them for sale, how do I know what is the correct one?

Usually you'll need to remove the stem or cartridge from the valve body. Take it to a plumbing supply store or home improvement center and match up what you have with a new one.

Ended up just replacing the faucet, couldn't find an rv store that carried them locally. Much happier with new chrome faucet vs the bland white

I'm glad you solved the issue, but I had said a 'home improvement center' not an RV store. Even Camping World stores pale in comparison to the plumbing parts available at Lowes, Home Depot, etc.

I doubt that any RV manufacturer has custom made fixtures, they are fixtures made for home use, not exclusive to RVs. Many items in your RV are not unique to RVs but found in a much more common outlets that don't tack on an extra fee. It's not quite as bad as anything labeled 'marine', but it's still pretty shocking to the wallet.
