Great replacement element.
The heating element was packaged well, and was delivered on time. I purchased the two pack not knowing the lower element I needed was a different length. The element fixed my problem and makes good hot water.

Element requires 1 7//8 inch socket. Trust me
The normal inch and 1/2 socket doesn’t work. The old one lasted 7 years before it failed. Copper does that…the lower element is titanium…it hasn’t failed yet. Rheem makes a socket for it. They failed to mention that to me from tech support. One of the techs actually said it was a 11/2 inch socket…it cost me 22 dollars but lowes had a socket that size. That socket has a 3/4” drive remember that too. The old element came out easy..
