Pfister exact part record
Pfister 974-035: application and identification
974-035 is a cartridge tied to documented Pfister applications. Confirm the model, generation, and installed geometry before purchase.
Direct answer
Pfister catalogs 974-035 as the service cartridge for the specific single-control faucet models associated with its part record. This is a source-backed application, not a fit claim based on visual similarity. Find the faucet model number and its parts explosion before selecting 974-035; similar exterior designs can contain different valve generations.

Documented application
Pfister catalogs 974-035 as the service cartridge for the specific single-control faucet models associated with its part record.
The relationship should be confirmed in the official service record for the complete faucet or rough-in model. A family name or matching trim is useful evidence, but it is not the same as a model-level parts callout.
Generation and configuration check
Find the faucet model number and its parts explosion before selecting 974-035; similar exterior designs can contain different valve generations.
Record whether the control is single-handle mixing control and whether the service diagram describes the complete assembly or only the replaceable internal component.
Physical confirmation
Verify stem profile, cartridge height, locating tabs, inlet geometry, and retainer against the removed component and official image.
Shut off the water and remove the existing part only when the fixture can be safely returned to service. Photograph its installed orientation and keep every retainer for comparison.
Purchase decision
Order 974-035 only when the official model relationship and the installed configuration agree. If either check conflicts, pause and identify the complete faucet or concealed valve before buying.
Do not infer compatibility from color, finish, handle style, or a marketplace photo. Those cues can group candidates, but they do not supersede the manufacturer's parts diagram.
Questions
Before you remove or replace the part
Is 974-035 compatible with every Pfister single-handle faucet?
No. Pfister catalogs 974-035 as the service cartridge for the specific single-control faucet models associated with its part record. Confirm the complete model and generation in Pfister's support material.
Can trim style identify the internal part?
Not reliably. Trim may be shared across valves, retained during updates, or visually similar across generations. Use the rough-in or faucet model and the installed component.
What should I compare after removal?
Compare the stem interface, body dimensions, locating features, seals, ports, rotation or side, and retention method with the official 974-035 service image.
