Sioux Chief 11903 Packing Nut, Pack of 10
The Sioux Chief 11903 Packing Nut is a trade rough-in plumbing hardware component manufactured in Taiwan and supplied 10 per pack, making it easy for plumbers and contractors to keep enough on hand for several service calls without reordering after a single repair. This small threaded nut is built to thread onto a valve stem or spindle and compress the packing material beneath it, helping maintain a tight, leak-free seal at the stem where a valve is operated. It is the kind of behind-the-wall, under-fixture hardware that rarely gets noticed until it fails, so having a ready supply on the truck keeps routine valve maintenance and leak calls moving without a parts-store run. Because it ships from Sioux Chief in a working pack quantity rather than as a single piece, the 11903 fits naturally into a plumber's stocked inventory of rough-in repair hardware alongside stems, washers, and seat components.
Key Features
- Pack of 10: Supplied 10 per pack, giving service plumbers and maintenance crews enough packing nuts on hand for multiple valve repairs before restocking.
- Packing Nut Function: Threads onto a valve stem or spindle to compress and retain the internal packing material, which is what keeps water from weeping past the stem during operation.
- Compact Rough-In Hardware: A small maintenance-grade fitting sized for behind-the-wall and under-fixture valve assemblies rather than a decorative, finish-grade fixture part.
- Replacement-Ready Design: Designed as a standalone hardware piece so a worn or leaking packing nut can be swapped out during a service call without replacing the entire valve.
- Country of Origin: Manufactured in Taiwan, part of Sioux Chief's broader rough-in plumbing hardware lineup.

Why Sioux Chief?
Sioux Chief is a well-established name in trade rough-in plumbing supply, and the 11903 Packing Nut reflects that same focus on practical, job-ready hardware rather than decorative finish parts. Supplying the nut in a pack of 10 means contractors are not left searching for a single odd piece of hardware mid-repair, and the Taiwan manufacturing keeps the part accessible and affordably stocked for everyday valve maintenance. For plumbers who need a dependable way to keep compression stops, angle stops, and similar valve stems sealed, the Sioux Chief 11903 is a straightforward, no-frills solution to add to the rough-in parts bin. Stock it alongside other Sioux Chief rough-in hardware to keep service trucks ready for the next leak call.
