American Standard 7381198-200.0200A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Which side of the tank does the American Standard 7381198-200 trip lever mount on?
It is a left hand trip lever, so it mounts on the left side of the toilet tank as you face it. If the hole in your tank is on the right side, or on the front face, this is the wrong handle and you need the matching right hand or front mount version instead. Handing on a trip lever is not adjustable, so match it to the existing tank hole before ordering.
2) I manage an apartment building with American Standard toilets. Can I standardize on this trip lever for all of them?
Only for the tanks with a left side handle hole that use the reduced wedged tip arm. Trip levers are not universal across a brand's lineup, so a building with a mix of tank models will usually need more than one part number. Pull the model number off the inside of the tank lid or the back of the tank on a sample of each toilet type, then order per group rather than assuming one handle covers the whole property.
3) What finish does the American Standard left hand trip lever come in?
White only. Part 7381198-200.0200A is the white version, which is the one property managers usually want for matching a white vitreous china tank rather than a chrome or brushed metal handle.
4) What is a reduced wedged tip on a toilet trip lever, and why does it matter?
The wedged tip is the end of the lever arm inside the tank that the flapper chain or flush valve linkage hooks onto. "Reduced" means that tip is slimmed down compared with the standard arm, which is how American Standard clears the flush valve body and the fill valve inside certain tank designs. If your original handle had this reduced tip, a full size replacement arm can foul the valve or bind the chain, so this is the one to order.
5) Is this American Standard part a complete toilet handle or just the lever arm?
It is the trip lever assembly for a toilet, meaning the outside handle together with the lever arm and its mounting nut, which is what threads through the tank hole and lifts the flapper chain. It does not include a flapper, chain, fill valve or flush valve. If the tank is leaking rather than the handle failing, the flapper is the part to replace.
6) Do I need tools to replace an American Standard toilet trip lever?
Just your hands and usually a small adjustable wrench. The handle is held by a single mounting nut on the inside of the tank, and that nut is reverse threaded on most toilet trip levers, so it loosens clockwise. Unhook the chain from the old wedged tip, back the nut off, pull the handle out through the hole, reverse for the new one, then reset the chain with about a half inch of slack so the flapper seats.
