American Standard 6540171.002 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the American Standard Monterrey gooseneck faucet fit a sink drilled for 8-inch centers?
Yes. The Monterrey 6540171 is a widespread faucet built for 8-inch centerset drilling, with cast brass valve bodies joined by 8 inch (203 mm) rigid copper connections between the two valves and the spout. It needs three holes: two handles plus the gooseneck spout.
2) What size supply connections does the Monterrey wrist blade faucet use?
The inlet shanks are 1/2 inch (13 mm) male thread with brass coupling nuts supplied. That lets you tie into standard 1/2 inch supply stops or flexible connectors without an adapter.
3) How far does the gooseneck spout reach over the bowl, and does it swivel?
Reach is 5 inches (127 mm) from the spout base. The gooseneck is field-convertible, so you can set it up rigid or as a swivel spout depending on whether the sink needs the spout to move aside.
4) Is this a good faucet for a healthcare handwashing sink?
It is built for that kind of duty: wrist blade handles with red and blue indicators let staff operate it with a forearm instead of hands, and the blades are vandal resistant for public washrooms. Flow is a 1.5 gpm (5.7 Lpm) pressure-compensating rose spray, which holds a steady pattern as building pressure fluctuates.
5) Do I need to replace washers on the Monterrey faucet, or is it a cartridge design?
It uses washerless ceramic disc valves, so there are no rubber washers to wear out and seat wear is not the usual cause of drips. For an MRO stock room that means the repair part is a disc cartridge, not a washer kit.
6) Will 1.5 gpm be enough flow for a commercial handwash station?
The rose spray pattern is what makes it work. At 1.5 gpm (5.7 Lpm) the pressure-compensating rose spray spreads the water for handwashing coverage rather than a single hard stream, so it meets low-flow restroom requirements without feeling starved. If you need to fill buckets or deep pots, a gooseneck laundry or service faucet with a plain aerator is the better tool.
7) What finish does the Monterrey 6540171 gooseneck faucet come in?
Chrome, ordered as part number 6540171.002. That is the only finish in the line for this model, which keeps it simple when you are standardizing restroom faucets across a building.
8) Are the valve bodies brass or plastic on this American Standard gooseneck?
Cast brass valve bodies, with rigid copper tubing running the 8 inch connection between them. No plastic bodies in the waterway, which is what most institutional and multi-family specs call for.
