Abstract
A supply conduit mounting assembly is disclosed for a single lever faucet. In assembled condition, the hot and cold water supply conduits are connected to the valve body of the faucet and rigidly held from movement relative to the valve body by a plate which serves as a structural member for mounting the valve body and connecting the end sections of the supply conduits to the valve body without threaded fittings or brazing. Resilient O-rings associated with the ends of the supply conduits provide a water-tight seal adjacent the junction of the supply conduits and the valve body bores and thereby prevent water from coming into contact with the mounting plate, which may be a low cost die casting of metal which is not required to be corrosion resistant.
