American Standard Lift Rod And Knob For Faucet - AMS-M964269

It is the lift rod and knob that operates a lavatory faucet's pop-up drain. The rod runs down through the back of the faucet body and connects to the pop-up drain linkage, so pulling the knob up closes the stopper and pushing down opens it. You get the rod and the knob, not the drain body or stopper.

Estate Bronze is the finish offered, ordered as M964269-1810A. If the faucet on the sink is chrome, brushed nickel, or polished brass, this rod will not match it visually since the knob sits up on the deck in plain view.

Just the lift rod and its knob. The drain body, tailpiece, stopper, and the horizontal pivot rod and clevis strap are separate items, so if your stopper itself is worn or leaking, replacing this rod alone won't fix it. Order the rod when the knob is broken, stripped at the threads, or the finish has failed.

Sometimes. The lift rod is the right part if the rod is bent, the knob is loose or snapped off, or the threaded end where it meets the clevis strap has stripped. If the rod moves fine but the stopper doesn't follow, the fault is usually in the clevis screw or the horizontal pivot rod behind the drain body, and those are separate parts from this rod and knob.

It is a faucet part, for a lavatory faucet with a deck-mounted lift rod running to a pop-up drain. Tub waste and overflow assemblies use a trip lever or toe-touch mechanism instead and take different parts entirely.

It works as a stock repair item for American Standard lavatory faucets that take the M964269 lift rod in Estate Bronze. Keep in mind the rod is faucet-model specific in length and thread, so match it to the faucet series already installed rather than assuming it drops into every bronze faucet on the property.
