American Standard h960764.191 Stem Extension Kit

Product Description

The American Standard h960764.191 is a stem extension kit designed to extend the reach of faucet valve stems in plumbing trim installations. This kit provides the additional length needed when valve stems fall short of finished wall surfaces, a common requirement in thick-wall or retrofit applications. Licensed plumbers and trim installers use stem extension kits to achieve proper handle alignment and function without replacing the entire valve body. The h960764.191 is built to integrate with compatible faucet valve assemblies and maintain reliable water control performance after installation.

This stem extension kit is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where faucet valve stems require added projection to meet trim requirements. It is typically installed during new construction or remodel work when wall thickness or tile depth places the finished surface beyond the standard stem reach. This kit allows the trim to be set correctly without modifying structural elements or valve rough-in positions.

Key Features

• Extends faucet valve stem reach to accommodate thick-wall or tile-over installations
• Allows proper handle and trim alignment without full valve replacement
• Designed for use in both new construction and retrofit remodel scenarios
• Maintains water control integrity through the extended stem assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style stem extension kit for compatible American Standard faucet valve assemblies requiring additional stem projection at the finished wall surface.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling any valve trim or stem components. Ensure the extension kit is fully seated and secured before reassembling trim and restoring water service. Verify handle operation and check for leaks at the stem connection after installation is complete.
