The long stem part of a nail or screw is called the "shank." The shank is the main body that extends from the head to the tip and is responsible for providing strength and stability when the fastener is driven into a material. In nails, it allows for better holding power, while in screws, it often features threads to enhance grip and prevent loosening.

How do you repair a faucet stem leak?

With the faucet shut off, take the handle off and under it is a nut around the stem. There is either an O ring under the nut, a fiber washer or stem packing depending on what type of faucet it is. Replace which ever it has and that should fix it. If your faucet is a screw type, the handle turns several time when opening it, you can probably take the nut off, wrap two or three wraps of stem packing around the stem, clockwise looking down on it and replace the nut and tighten. This will compress the packing around the stem without replacing the cone washer in the nut or all of the old packing.
