    Hello everyone -

    Just a follow-up to the "loose handle" situation.

    Moen sent me a box of parts - 95606

    It included a new handle, hub and set screw -- the items had been re-designed.

    It went on w/o a problem, we'll see how eveything works.

    I only wish we had bought all moen fixture when we built our house!

    There are certain types of lock washers you can buy and slide on the screw for the faucet. That will eliminate the problem of the faucet coming loose

    Hello jcman2001 -

    In reference to your "lock washers" post - I don't think this particular problem could be solved with a lock washer - moen redesigned the hub, set screw and handle because the hole in the hub would enlarge and prevent a secure connection.
