American Standard 1660241.243 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the American Standard 1660241 shower arm thread onto my existing shower supply stub?
The 1660241 shower arm uses 1/2-inch NPT thread on both ends, which is the standard shower drop connection in residential plumbing. If your wall stub is a 1/2-inch female NPT fitting, it threads straight in with tape or pipe dope. Any showerhead with a 1/2-inch female inlet will mount on the outlet end.
2) Which American Standard showerheads is this 5-inch wall mount arm made for?
American Standard calls it out for use with showerheads 1660.681, 1660.683 and 1660.688. Because it terminates in a standard 1/2-inch NPT thread, it will also carry other heads with a 1/2-inch female inlet.
3) How far does this American Standard shower arm reach out from the wall?
It is a 5-inch wall mount arm, a short reach meant to put the head close to the wall rather than out over the center of the tub or a large shower. Overall the part measures 7.25 by 5.25 by 3 inches and weighs about 0.705 lb. If you need the head positioned further into the enclosure, this is not the arm for it.
4) What finishes does the American Standard 1660241 shower arm come in?
Five: Chrome (1660241.002), Polished Nickel (1660241.013), Matte Black (1660241.243), Brushed Nickel (1660241.295) and Brushed Cool Sunrise (1660241.GN0). Order the suffix that matches the showerhead and valve trim already going into the opening, since these are the same finish codes American Standard uses across the line.
5) Is this shower arm metal or plastic?
Brass. The 1660241 arm is brass construction with a plated finish, so it will hold the weight of a metal showerhead without flexing at the wall fitting.
6) Does the shower arm come with a flange to cover the hole in the tile?
The 1660241 is sold as the arm itself, in a 5-inch wall mount form with 1/2-inch NPT ends. The showerhead is a separate item, so pair it with one of the heads it is specified for (1660.681, 1660.683 or 1660.688) or another head with a 1/2-inch female inlet.
