This is the original Cascada-spec cartridge, built from thermoplastic polymer selected specifically for thermal stability and limescale resistance. It's the same component the valve was designed around. That matters when you're dealing with water temperature in a pressurized system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cascada Showers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e CSCAFX042YS\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e C-Type Thermostatic Cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 59°F – 140°F (15°C – 60°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.63\" × 2.34\" × 1.85\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.84\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor \/ Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Golden\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Advanced thermoplastic polymer (anti-limescale)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4-knob, 5-knob, 6-knob, and 7-knob thermostatic shower valves (C-Type)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-Scald:\u003c\/strong\u003e Individually tested per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 × C-Type Thermostatic Cartridge + 1 × Compatible Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003e📦 What's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eC-Type Thermostatic Cartridge × 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCompatible Washer × 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCheck your valve type and dimensions above\u003c\/strong\u003e, confirm it's a C-Type system, and order with confidence.
