American Standard M964488-0020A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the American Standard M964488 lift rod and knob actually do on a faucet?
It's the vertical rod and pull knob that operates a sink pop-up drain. You pull the knob up behind the faucet spout, the rod drops and pivots the linkage under the sink, and the pop-up stopper closes. American Standard sells it as a pop-up assembly part for faucets, so it's a replacement for a bent, corroded, or missing rod and knob rather than a complete drain assembly.
2) Does the M964488 include the whole pop-up drain, or just the rod?
Just the lift rod and its knob. The drain body, tailpiece, stopper, clevis strap and horizontal pivot rod are not part of it. If your stopper itself is damaged or the pivot linkage is leaking, you need a full pop-up assembly, not this part.
3) What finishes does the American Standard M964488 lift rod come in?
Three: chrome (M964488-0020A), brushed nickel (M964488-2950A), and legacy bronze (M964488-2780A). Match the finish to the faucet it's going into, since the knob sits on top of the deck and is the only part anyone sees.
4) My lift rod knob unscrewed and disappeared down the sink. Can I order just this part instead of a new faucet?
Yes, that's exactly what this is for. American Standard supplies the lift rod and knob as a service part, so a lost knob or a rod that's been bent out of shape doesn't mean replacing the faucet. Pick the finish that matches your trim, and be ready to loosen the clevis screw under the sink to set the new rod at the right height.
5) Will this American Standard lift rod fit a Moen or Delta faucet?
Treat it as an American Standard part. Lift rods vary in diameter, length and knob thread between manufacturers, and nothing here states cross-brand fit. For a maintenance kit across mixed faucet brands in a building, order the rod that matches each faucet's maker rather than standardizing on one.
