American Standard M970463-2430A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the American Standard M970463 escutcheon used for?
It's the trim plate that covers the wall opening around a shower or tub valve, hiding the rough-in hole and the gap where the valve body passes through the finished wall. American Standard lists the M970463 for shower and tub applications. It is the cover plate only, not the valve or the trim handle.
2) What finishes does the American Standard M970463 escutcheon come in, and what part number is each?
Five finishes, each with its own American Standard number: Chrome is M970463-0020A, Polished Nickel is M970463-0130A, Matte Black is M970463-2430A, Brushed Nickel is M970463-2950A, and Brushed Cool Sunrise is M970463-GN00A. Order by the full suffixed number so the plate matches the rest of the shower trim.
3) I manage apartments and my tub valve plate is cracked. Can I replace just the escutcheon without touching the valve?
That's exactly what this part is for. The M970463 is sold as a standalone shower and tub escutcheon, so a cracked or corroded plate can be swapped without pulling the valve or opening the wall. Match the finish to your existing trim, since the plate is offered in chrome, polished nickel, matte black, brushed nickel and brushed cool sunrise.
4) Does the M970463 escutcheon include the valve trim or handle?
No. It is the escutcheon on its own, the wall plate for a shower or tub valve. Handles, sleeves, cartridges and valve bodies are separate American Standard parts and have to be ordered individually.
5) Can I standardize one escutcheon finish across a whole building with this part?
Yes, and matte black or brushed nickel are the two most common choices for that. Because a single American Standard number covers each finish (for example M970463-2950A in brushed nickel), you can spec one part number for every bath in the property and keep spares on the MRO shelf in the same finish.
