American Standard 1660118.243 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use the American Standard 1660118 shower arm without opening the wall or moving the plumbing?
Yes. It threads onto the existing wall shower outlet, so the height and reach change happens entirely outside the wall with no rough-in work. Shower arms use a standard 1/2 inch NPT male thread at both the wall and the showerhead end, so a conventional showerhead and wall flange go straight on. Wrap the threads with PTFE tape when you install it.
2) What finishes does the American Standard 1660118 shower arm come in?
Five: chrome (1660118.002), polished nickel (1660118.013), matte black (1660118.243), brushed nickel (1660118.295), and Brushed Cool Sunrise (1660118.GN0). Order the arm in the same finish family as the showerhead and the valve trim, since the arm and flange sit at eye level and a mismatch shows immediately.
3) Is a showerhead included with the 1660118 arm?
No. This is the arm only, a shower arm with a right angle bend. You order the showerhead separately, and the wall escutcheon/flange and the head need to be specified in the matching finish.
4) How much clearance do I need for the American Standard 1660118 arm, and how heavy is it?
The packaged part measures 25.079 x 5.315 x 2.992 inches and weighs 2.094 pounds. That weight matters on the fixing: a long arm plus a large rain head puts real leverage on the wall fitting, so make sure the drop-ear elbow or outlet behind the tile is properly backed and secured before hanging it.
5) Should I use a right angle shower arm or a standard S-shaped one?
A standard S-shaped arm is short and aims the head at the bather from the wall, which is what most tub/shower combinations use. The right angle arm here is the choice when you want the head positioned overhead or further out into the enclosure, typically with a rain head. If you are simply replacing a conventional wall showerhead in a 60-inch tub alcove, the shorter standard arm is the simpler swap.
6) Is the 1660118 shower arm suitable for apartment or hotel bathrooms, or is it a residential-only item?
American Standard classifies the 1660118 arm as a residential, luxury-tier item. For a multi-family or hospitality retrofit that means it will suit owner units, model units, or an upgraded finish package, but a high-abuse commercial washroom where fixtures get pulled on is a different duty profile and usually calls for a commercial-spec arm.
7) Will the 1660118 arm work with showerheads from other American Standard collections?
It is a universal arm rather than one tied to a single collection, so it is not restricted to one showerhead family. Matching is a finish decision more than a compatibility one: pick the arm finish code that pairs with the head and valve trim you are installing.
