American Standard Univ. Triplever 1.1/B8104 Press Ves - AMS-7381065-200

Handing matters on trip levers. Most tanks are drilled for a front-left handle, but side-mount and right-hand tanks exist, and an arm bent for the wrong side will bind on the tank wall or miss the flapper chain. Before ordering the American Standard 7381065-200, check which hole your current lever comes through and whether the arm sweeps left or right. Match that, and match the arm length so the chain hangs plumb over the flush valve with a little slack.

It's the flush handle assembly for a toilet tank. The trip lever is the external handle plus the arm inside the tank that lifts the flapper or flush valve chain when you press it. American Standard sells it as a service part, so it's what you order when the handle snaps, strips, or corrodes rather than replacing the tank.

Usually not. A trip lever comes as the handle, arm, and the mounting nut that holds it in the tank hole, and it reuses the existing flapper chain. Worth knowing: the retaining nut on most tank handles is reverse threaded, so it loosens clockwise from inside the tank. If the chain itself is rusted or the flapper is leaking, replace those at the same time since the tank is already open.

For a portfolio of American Standard toilets, yes, that's the point of a universal-style trip lever. Buying one chrome part number, 7381065-200.0020A, across the property means one item on the truck and one line on the reorder instead of chasing tank-specific handles per model. Where the buildings mix brands, confirm the tank hole location and arm sweep on the non-American Standard fixtures before you commit the whole fleet to one part.
