American Standard M962493-2950A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What exactly comes with the American Standard M962493 shower arm, or do I need to buy the escutcheon separately?
Arm and flange together. The M962493 is sold as a shower arm with its matching wall flange, so the trim ring that covers the drop-ear elbow at the wall is included. You supply the showerhead and thread sealant.
2) Will this American Standard shower arm thread into my existing shower elbow, or is it brand specific?
Shower arms are a standard plumbing connection, not a brand-locked part: the wall end threads into the 1/2 inch NPT drop-ear elbow already in the wall, and the showerhead end takes any standard showerhead. So the brushed nickel M962493 arm can replace an arm of another brand as long as you are happy with the finish and the arm's shape.
3) What finish is the American Standard M962493-2950A shower arm?
Brushed nickel. That is the single finish offered on this arm, ordered as M962493-2950A, so if your showerhead and valve trim are chrome or matte black the arm will not match.
4) I manage apartments and need to replace a corroded shower arm without opening the wall. Is this the right part?
It is. Replacing the arm is a surface job: unthread the old arm from the drop-ear elbow inside the wall, clean the threads, re-tape, and thread in the new brushed nickel arm and flange. No wall access and no valve work. Just note the finish is brushed nickel only, so it will stand out if the rest of your units are chrome.
5) Can I use this shower arm on a tub and shower combination?
Yes. The M962493 is listed for shower and tub applications, so it works on a tub/shower riser as well as a shower-only wall outlet. It is a wall-mount arm, not a ceiling drop.
