American Standard M970478-0070A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the American Standard M970478 shank kit used for?
It's a faucet shank kit from American Standard, part number M970478-0070A. The shanks are the threaded tubes that pass down through the deck or sink holes and secure the faucet body from underneath, so this is a repair or replacement part rather than a complete faucet.
2) I'm a property manager replacing leaking American Standard faucets - can I just order this shank kit instead of the whole faucet?
Only if the leak or fault is at the shanks themselves, where the faucet body threads down through the deck. The M970478 kit covers the shank hardware for American Standard faucets and nothing else, so it won't address a worn cartridge, stem, or spout seal. Order it against the model number of the faucet on the wall so the shank kit matches that body.
3) Does the American Standard shank kit M970478 come in a polished chrome or brushed nickel finish?
No. The M970478 shank kit is supplied with no finish, which is normal for a part that mounts below the deck and is never seen once the faucet is installed. If you need a visible trim piece matched to a finish, this is not the part.
4) Is M970478-0070A the number I should give my plumbing supplier?
Yes, M970478-0070A is the American Standard manufacturer part number for the shank kit. The M970478 root identifies the kit and the 0070A suffix is the unfinished version.
