Chicago Faucets 1888-001JKCP
The Chicago Faucets 1888-001JKCP is a genuine OEM replacement flange designed specifically for the 1888 Series deck-mounted manual faucets. This flange provides a decorative and protective transition where the spout assembly meets the faucet body or the mounting surface. Finished in high-luster polished chrome (CP), it is engineered to match the professional aesthetic of Chicago Faucets' commercial fixtures. While the 1888-001KJKABCP refers to the entire spout assembly with an integral flange, the 1888-001JKCP is the specific service part number for the flange component, ensuring your high-traffic sink remains looking professional and protected from moisture.
Expert Insight:
The 1888-001JKCP is a dedicated component for the 1888 Series deck-mount faucets, which are common in commercial kitchens and breakrooms. If you've noticed mineral buildup or "pitting" at the base of your swing spout, replacing just the flange can restore the fixture's appearance without the cost of a full spout assembly. Installation Tip: When installing, ensure the mounting surface is completely clean. A small ring of plumber's putty or a thin bead of silicone under the flange is highly recommended to prevent water from seeping into the mounting holes on your stainless steel deck. Pro Tip: This flange is designed to work with the 9-1/2" swing tube spout. If your spout is wobbly, it’s often because the internal O-rings (part of the KJK assembly) have worn down, putting uneven pressure on this flange. Checking your spout's internal seals while replacing the flange is a smart maintenance move. Need to verify compatibility with an older 1888-CP model? Call the experts at ProDryers at 888-503-7937!
