XBVV 32 Size 258 Pcs Faucet and Plumbing Rubber Washers Assortment Kit for Assorted Garden Hose Valve Spigot Adapter Splitter Outdoor Faucet Bibb Shower Hose Gasket Repair

Why I picked up this washer kit

A dripping faucet and a weeping garden hose connector pushed me to get serious about stocking a proper assortment of washers. I wanted a single box that could handle indoor compression faucets, outdoor spigots, garden hoses, and the odd shower-hose gasket. The XBVV washer kit fit that bill on paper, so I put it on the bench and started working through a handful of real repairs around the house.

What’s in the box

This is a 258-piece assortment of molded neoprene washers plus six brass screws for faucet-stem washer replacements. The mix includes:

• Flat washers in several outer diameter sizes for supply lines, shower hoses, and garden hose connections
• Beveled (conical) faucet washers for compression-style faucet valves
• A range of diameters commonly used in bathroom sink faucets, tub/shower compression valves, standard 3/4-inch garden hoses, 1/2-inch shower hoses, and washing machine supply fittings
• Brass screws sized for attaching washers to faucet stems (helpful when the old screw head is chewed up or corroded)

Everything arrives sorted in a hard plastic organizer with compartments labeled by size/type, which matters more than you’d think when you’re elbow-deep under a sink and don’t want to play mix-and-match with lookalike parts.

Setup and organization

The kit’s strength is its organization. The molded washers are consistent, edges are clean, and the sizes are easy to identify. The labels in the case correspond to common faucet washer conventions (for example, the familiar 00/0/1/2 numbering alongside fractional diameters). For hose and plumbing washers, the outer diameter markings (like 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, 15/16-inch, 1-inch, etc.) are clearly separated. That meant I didn’t waste time trying to eyeball differences that are too small to judge accurately.

Tip: Before you start a faucet repair, take the worn washer with you to the kit and match thickness and profile as well as diameter. A beveled washer with the wrong profile can “sort of” fit but won’t seal properly.

In use: repairs I made with this kit

• Dripping bathroom faucet (compression style): I pulled the hot-side stem, found a hardened beveled washer, replaced it with a matching size from the kit, and installed one of the new brass screws. I also inspected the valve seat; it was smooth, so no dressing was needed. The drip stopped immediately and has stayed dry after weeks of daily hot/cold cycling.

• Outdoor spigot slow drip: The existing washer was flattened and glazed. Swapping in a beveled washer of the same footprint took minutes. Again, no leak after the swap, and the handle now seats with less force, which tells me the rubber is compressing correctly.

• Garden hose gasket: The old hose washer had gone square under pressure. I popped in a fresh flat washer sized for 3/4-inch fittings and put the system back under pressure with a spray nozzle. No misting at the swivel, even with the nozzle closed at full supply pressure.

• Handheld shower hose: This used a flat 1/2-inch washer at the wall outlet. Replaced in under a minute. The joint can now be snugged by hand without weeping.

I also used the kit to replace a washer on a washing machine water supply line. If you’ve ever had a mystery drip at the back of a washer, a new flat washer in the female connector often solves it. This kit had the match.

Fit, compatibility, and sizing

Between the beveled faucet washers and the variety of flat plumbing washers, I found a fit for every household water job I threw at it. The range covers the typical American compression faucet sizes as well as the common hose standards. It also had a couple of “in-between” diameters that matched an imported bathroom faucet I keep as a test piece, which was a pleasant surprise.

The brass screws are the standard slot-head type and thread correctly into the faucet stems I worked on. If your stem uses a different screw style or thread pitch, you’ll still have your original hardware, but it’s good to have spares when the old head is stripped.

Material quality and sealing performance

These washers are molded neoprene, not die-cut from sheet. The edges are clean, the surfaces are smooth, and they compress evenly under load. Neoprene is a practical choice for water service: it seals well, resists deformation better than cheap vinyl, and tolerates typical residential hot water temperatures. In my tests, they sealed reliably under both static pressure (valve closed) and dynamic use (frequent open/close).

Two notes on material behavior:

• Compression set: After installation, flat washers will take a set over time, which is normal. With decent neoprene, that set happens slowly. After a few weeks, mine still looked healthy when inspected during a follow-up.
• Chemical and temperature limits: For potable hot/cold water, garden hoses, and general household use, neoprene holds up. I wouldn’t use them for fuels, oils, or steam systems—this kit is for water plumbing.

Durability so far

I’ve had the bathroom and outdoor faucet repairs in place for several weeks with no return leaks. The hose washers have seen on/off cycling and still seal without needing to over-tighten fittings. The beveled faucet washers in particular feel resilient—firm enough to resist tearing at the screw, pliable enough to create a seal without excessive handle torque.

Long term, any rubber washer will wear; the benefit here is that I now have spares in the right sizes for a quick swap rather than a hardware store run.

Shortcomings and what the kit doesn’t include

• No screen washers: If you need a garden hose or washing machine washer with an integrated mesh screen, those aren’t in the box.
• Not an O-ring kit: This is a washer assortment. If your faucet relies on O-rings or uses a ceramic cartridge, this kit won’t solve those problems.
• Seat issues: If a faucet still drips after a correct washer replacement, the valve seat might be pitted. This kit doesn’t include seats or a seat-dressing tool, so budget for that if your fixtures are older.

None of these are deal-breakers; they’re just worth noting so you match the kit to the right repair.

Practical tips for getting good results

• Match profile before diameter: For faucet stems, profile (flat vs. beveled and the angle of the bevel) matters. Pick the right style first, then confirm size.
• Inspect the seat: Run a fingertip around the valve seat. If you feel grooves or pits, fix the seat before judging the washer.
• Replace the screw if it’s chewed: A smooth screw head makes future maintenance easier and ensures the washer sits flat.
• Don’t overtighten hose fittings: A fresh flat washer should seal with hand-tight plus a small wrench nudge. Over-tightening shortens washer life and can deform threads.

Value and who it’s for

If you maintain your own fixtures—or you’re the neighbor everyone calls for quick fixes—this kit is a solid staple. The cost per usable washer is low, and the convenience of having both faucet and plumbing sizes in one organizer outweighs piecemeal buying. It’s especially useful for older homes with compression faucets and for anyone running a mix of indoor and outdoor water connections.

For a pro plumber, this won’t replace specialized bins of brand-specific parts, but it’s still handy as a truck kit for generic repairs and emergency stops.

Final recommendation

I recommend the XBVV washer kit. It’s well organized, covers the everyday range of faucet and hose sizes, and the molded neoprene seals reliably without feeling brittle or plasticky. The inclusion of brass screws is thoughtful, and the mix spans both indoor valves and outdoor hose connections. It won’t fix cartridge-based faucets or replace screen washers, but for compression faucets, spigots, shower hoses, and supply lines, it has what you need, ready in one box. If you want to stop chasing drips and start finishing repairs on the first try, this is a practical, cost-effective addition to any toolbox.
