Bk 203-194NL Single Handle Mip Tee Handle Chrome Brass Trim

Product Description

The BK 203-194NL is an adjustable single-handle faucet trim fitting designed for use with 1/2-inch male iron pipe (MIP) inlet connections. Built on a brass base with a high-luster chrome finish, it features a reversible indexed lever in a tee-handle configuration that accommodates both hot and cold installation orientations. The adjustable flange allows for a clean, flush appearance against wall surfaces even when rough-in dimensions vary slightly. Licensed plumbers and experienced trim installers rely on this type of fitting to complete valve trim-out on tub and shower applications.

This trim piece is suited for residential plumbing applications where a 1/2-inch MIP rough-in valve is already in place. The reversible indexed lever handle makes it adaptable to either hot or cold supply positions without requiring a separate part, reducing the number of SKUs needed on a service call. The chrome-over-brass construction provides corrosion resistance appropriate for wet environments.

Key Features

• Adjustable flange accommodates minor variation in wall rough-in depth
• Reversible indexed lever handle supports hot or cold installation without additional hardware
• Tee-handle design for a traditional grip profile
• High-luster chrome finish applied over brass for durability in wet environments
• 1/2-inch MIP male inlet connection for direct threaded engagement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation trim for residential plumbing valves with a 1/2-inch MIP inlet configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before beginning any trim work. Use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on the MIP threads to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not overtighten the flange or handle hardware against finished wall surfaces, as this may crack tile or damage the chrome finish.
