Rated 5 out of 5 by from EXACTLY what I needed After purchasing what I believed to be the correct faucet set, just for the handle piece, from Amazon and Home Depot, I finally just came to the Delta site to find what I was looking for. The only reason I didn't come to the site sooner was because I believed it would be more expensive, I found that I was wrong. In fact Delta sold the exact part I was looking for and it was cheaper than the set I purchased from Amazon and Home Depot. It was EXACTLY what i needed.

Hi JimS, Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet model RP74148SS. A number written on a handle does not indicate the Delta part number, unfortunately.
