American Standard M962606-0020A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the American Standard M962606 include the escutcheon flange, or do I need to buy it separately?
The flange is included. It ships as a shower arm and flange assembly, so the arm plus the trim ring that covers the wall opening come together, and you do not need to source a separate escutcheon.
2) Can I use this American Standard shower arm with a non-American Standard showerhead?
Yes. Shower arms use the standard 1/2 inch NPT thread at both the wall drop ell and the showerhead end, so the M962606 arm takes any standard showerhead regardless of brand. Wrap the threads with PTFE tape at both connections.
3) I'm replacing a corroded shower arm in an apartment unit. Will this drop into the existing wall fitting?
In almost all cases yes. Old arms thread into a 1/2 inch NPT drop ell inside the wall, and the M962606 arm threads into that same fitting, so the swap is done from the face of the wall with no opening up. Unscrew the old arm counterclockwise, clean the drop ell threads, tape and thread the new one in, then slide the flange to the wall.
4) What finishes does the American Standard M962606 shower arm and flange come in?
Two finishes: polished chrome (M962606-0020A) and brushed nickel (M962606-2950A). Both are the same shower arm and flange assembly, so pick the one that matches the showerhead and trim already on the wall.
5) Is this a shower arm only, or does it work for a tub and shower setup?
It is the overhead shower arm, listed for shower and tub applications. In a tub/shower combination it carries the showerhead off the wall above the valve; it is not a tub spout and will not replace one.
6) Will the brushed nickel version match my other brushed nickel bath fittings?
The brushed nickel arm, M962606-2950A, is American Standard's brushed nickel finish and will match other American Standard trim in that finish. Across brands, brushed nickel varies slightly in tone, so on a visible wall arm next to another maker's showerhead expect a close match rather than an exact one.
