Glacier Bay exact part record
Glacier Bay RP20013 Cartridge Identification
RP20013 is a faucet cartridge documented for Glacier Bay faucet models with replacement-parts documentation specifying RP20013. Use the marked part number and the fixture's service information rather than appearance alone.
Direct answer
The Home Depot's Glacier Bay parts catalog identifies RP20013 as a replacement cartridge. A supported fit requires a Glacier Bay model manual or product-parts listing that names RP20013. Before ordering, retrieve the installed faucet's model-specific parts list and match both RP20013 and the original component's mechanical interfaces.

What this record identifies
The Home Depot's Glacier Bay parts catalog identifies RP20013 as a replacement 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 faucet application identified in the model parts list, with handle configuration shown in the applicable faucet manual. A matching silhouette is useful for narrowing a search, but it does not establish fit.
Documented model or system relationship
A supported fit requires a Glacier Bay model manual or product-parts listing that names RP20013. 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
retrieve the installed faucet's model-specific parts list and match both RP20013 and the original component's mechanical interfaces. 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
Do not infer fit from a retailer photo alone; nearby RP-numbered cartridges may differ at the stem, locating keys, or lower ports. 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
The faucet's manual determines whether this cartridge serves its handle arrangement and whether other seals or retainers are separate. 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 RP20013 the complete faucet or valve?
No. It is the faucet cartridge identified in this record. The complete fixture or system is Glacier Bay faucet models with replacement-parts documentation specifying RP20013.
Does RP20013 fit every Glacier Bay fixture?
No such broad fit is established here. Use it only where Glacier Bay or the linked authoritative documentation identifies RP20013 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.
