What this record identifies

The Home Depot lists RP20006 in its Glacier Bay replacement-parts catalog as a cartridge. This is a part record, not the name of a complete faucet or valve. The manufacturer or authorized product documentation linked below is the basis for the application shown here.

The relevant fixture context is single-handle faucet where specified, with one mixing lever. A matching silhouette is useful for narrowing a search, but it does not establish fit.

Documented model or system relationship

Use is limited to Glacier Bay faucet service information that specifically calls for RP20006. That relationship is narrower than a claim that the part fits every Glacier Bay product. Product families can contain different generations, valve bodies, or handle arrangements.

Read the source's application details together with the service sheet for the installed fixture. If the fixture documentation names another part number, follow that documentation rather than this visual guide.

Checks to make before purchase

verify the faucet model's parts diagram and then compare the original cartridge's stem profile, stops, ports, and sealing surface. Compare the complete identifier, connection geometry, locating features, and handle interface while the old part is available.

Also confirm whether the listing is for the internal service part alone or includes seals, clips, adapters, or other installation pieces. Package contents can matter even when the main component number is correct.

How to separate common lookalikes

RP20006 and other Glacier Bay cartridge listings are separate identifiers; close visual resemblance does not make their applications interchangeable. Do not treat color, overall length, or a similar stem profile as a substitute for an application listing.

A model number from the faucet, installation sheet, receipt, or valve trim is stronger evidence than a photo match. When markings are missing, contact Glacier Bay support with clear photos and measurements before buying.

Service context

This internal part controls a one-handle faucet; it is not a two-handle hot or cold stem and not a shower valve cartridge. Shut off the water and verify that flow has stopped before opening the fixture. Protect finished surfaces and preserve the original orientation of clips, stops, and seals.

If corrosion, a damaged valve body, or uncertain in-wall plumbing prevents a positive identification, pause the repair and use a qualified plumbing professional.

Questions

Before you remove or replace the part

Is RP20006 the complete faucet or valve?

No. It is the faucet cartridge identified in this record. The complete fixture or system is Glacier Bay single-handle faucet models whose replacement-parts information names RP20006.

Does RP20006 fit every Glacier Bay fixture?

No such broad fit is established here. Use it only where Glacier Bay or the linked authoritative documentation identifies RP20006 for the installed model or system.

Can appearance alone confirm the replacement?

No. Confirm the full part number, documented application, connection geometry, locating features, and handle interface before purchase.

What if the fixture model cannot be found?

Keep the old part, photograph its markings and interfaces, and ask Glacier Bay support to identify it. Avoid forcing a near-match into the fixture.
