American Standard 021470-0020A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the American Standard 021470-0020A index button and does it come with the O-ring?
It's the index button cap for American Standard Amarilis and Hampton faucet handles, and the O-ring ships with it. That's the small snap-in cap that covers the handle screw and carries the hot or cold marking. Ordering part 021470-0020A gets you the cap plus its O-ring, so you don't have to source the seal separately.
2) My American Standard faucet handle keeps loosening and the cap on top popped off. Do I need a whole new handle?
Not necessarily. On Amarilis and Hampton faucets the cap on top of the handle is the index button, and it's sold on its own as part 021470-0020A with a fresh O-ring. If the handle body and broach are sound and it's only the cap that's missing or spinning loose, replacing the button and its O-ring is the repair. A new handle is only needed if the handle itself is cracked or stripped.
3) Will the American Standard Amarilis index button fit a Hampton handle too?
Yes, the same cap covers both. American Standard lists 021470-0020A as the index button for Amarilis and Hampton faucet handles, so property managers running a mix of those two trims across a building can stock one part number for both. It is not a universal cap, though. Other American Standard trim lines use their own index buttons.
4) Does the American Standard index button cap come in anything other than chrome?
Chrome only. Part 021470-0020A is built as a polished chrome cap, so it matches chrome Amarilis and Hampton trim. If the faucet in the unit is a brushed nickel or bronze version of that trim, this button will read as a mismatch on the top of the handle.
5) Can I buy just the index button for an American Standard faucet, or is it only sold with the handle?
It's a standalone repair part. American Standard breaks the index button out under its own number, 021470-0020A, so an MRO or maintenance buyer restocking a cart can carry a handful of caps without buying handles. Useful in multi-family and hospitality work, where these caps go missing one unit at a time.
6) What does the O-ring on an American Standard faucet index button actually do?
It's the friction fit. The O-ring sits in the groove on the index button and grips the recess in the handle top so the cap stays seated and turns with the handle instead of working loose. Once that ring is flattened or torn, the button falls out and the handle screw underneath is exposed to water. The 021470-0020A cap ships with the O-ring, which is why replacing the pair together is the fix rather than pressing the old cap back in.
