Febco Bonnet and Poppet Assembly Kit 905212 for 1 inch and 1-1/4 inch Febco 765 Valves

Exactly as pictured and easy to install. Well worth the money.

I bought a cheaper component from a different mfg at the local big box hardware. It was made of a different plastic, about half the price. Well, it failed dramatically about 3 weeks later, cracking into pieces inside the valve. Luckily I was home at the time and could shut the water off. This part may seem expensive but the plastic is engineered to take the load, lasts years.

It saved me from being ripped off with $225 by installing it myself. Extremely easy installation.

I bought this part because it was listed as a Febco OEM part. First, there was no OEM packaging. Second, the part had minor differences as compared to the part that I removed from the FEBCO housing. Third, there were a couple of LLCs listed materials with the shipment that do not appear to have a presence outside of online retail through Amazon and possibly some other sites. Why pay a premium for a purported OEM part?

As one of the SE Texas residents who spent more than a day without electricity/heat and temps that dropped to 10 degrees, I was lucky that I had no water pipes burst in my home but was not so lucky with my sprinkler system. I had wrapped it and thought I shut off the valves. Unfortunately I had turned them off in November and forgot, so I ended up turning them back on. Doh! We almost never see temps this low. Last year, the temp never got below freezing. I was lucky that my neighbor was out checking on his home and saw the water spraying out of my back flow preventer and shut the valves off. Then, 34,000 gallons later, I chipped the ice off the brick and saw the parts that failed. I was lucky and grabbed the repair parts before the prices tripled. It was a very simple repair that anyone can do. This item fits the majority of Febco back flow preventers. Besides these two pieces that break the easiest, there is another white plastic part that is below the metal plate and large spring. I checked mine and that part did not fail. It took less than five minutes total to replace the parts and I’m back in business. Because of the massive number of failures in my state, people were paying hundreds of dollars for the repair. The other good thing is these replacement parts appear to be of higher quality than the parts that were in the factory part.

Exacly as expected and sent in a very timely fashion.

This kit comes with everything you need to replace a worn or broken Bonnet and Poppet Alssembly. Easy to replace and comes with a small tube of lube for the rubber gaskets.

Perfect and exactly as described with the added bonus of being sold by a small business.

Easy to install. Make sure you use all the supplied grease to cover the threads.

fit perfectly!
