American Brass Plumbing Parts & Accessories: Over a Century of Craftsmanship

American Brass — formally known as The American Brass Manufacturing Co. — is one of the most storied names in American plumbing. Founded in 1894 when six Arth brothers established a brass foundry in Cleveland, Ohio, the company has been supplying faucets and plumbing parts to builders and plumbing supply houses across the United States for well over a century. Today, the business continues to be guided by the founding family's fourth and fifth generations, a testament to the enduring values of craftsmanship and reliability that have defined the brand from the start.

Within the Plumbing Parts & Accessories category, American Brass occupies a unique niche. The company is best known through its flagship brand, Empire Faucets, which has earned recognition as the longest-tenured supplier of specialized faucets and plumbing accessories to the RV and manufactured housing (MH) industries. That specialization translates directly into its plumbing parts lineup — components engineered for the specific demands of compact, mobile, and prefabricated living environments, where reliability and a precise fit are non-negotiable.

What sets American Brass plumbing parts apart is a combination of domestic manufacturing discipline and product breadth. Every Empire Faucet and its associated parts are fully finished and tested at the company's original factory at 5000 Superior Avenue in Cleveland, OH. Product offerings include single pre-cast molds, brass casting machined components, ceramic disc and washerless cartridges, lead-free brass fittings, and stainless flexible supply lines — covering everything from routine maintenance to full fixture replacement.

The company's plumbing accessories range from economic value-tier replacement components to designer-quality upgrades, making it a practical choice for repair technicians, RV owners, mobile homeowners, and residential plumbers alike. With millions of faucets sold across OEM and aftermarket channels over 70-plus years, the availability of genuine American Brass replacement parts is a significant advantage for anyone maintaining fixtures already installed in their rig or home.
