American Standard M970289-0020A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is American Standard part M970289-0020A used for?
It's the set screw and button (index plug) for an American Standard faucet handle. The set screw clamps the handle to the stem or cartridge, and the button covers the screw recess once the handle is tightened down. Order it when the original screw is stripped, seized off, or the cover button has popped out and gone missing.
2) Can I use this American Standard set screw on a different brand of faucet?
Treat it as American Standard only. Handle set screws vary by thread size, length, and point style between manufacturers, and the button has to seat in the handle's own recess. For a Moen, Delta, or Kohler handle, pull the screw and button listed for that faucet's handle instead of substituting this one.
3) What finish does the American Standard set screw and button come in?
Chrome is the finish offered, ordered as part number M970289-0020A. If the faucet handles in the unit are brushed nickel or another finish, the exposed button will not match, so for a visible handle position you would want the screw and button supplied for that finish family instead.
4) Do I get both the screw and the cover button, or just one piece?
Both. M970289-0020A is supplied as the set screw and button together, so a maintenance tech replacing a stripped handle screw does not need a second line item for the trim cap.
5) I manage apartments with American Standard faucets. Is it worth stocking these set screws?
Yes, for a property with chrome American Standard faucet trim it's a cheap shelf item that saves a handle or full trim replacement. The screw is the part that strips first when a handle is repeatedly overtightened, and the button is the part that vanishes during a handle pull. Stocking M970289-0020A lets a tech finish the call rather than order and come back.
