Brasstech 3-163-15S Diverter Flow Control Handle

Product Description

The BRASSTECH 3-163-15S is a diverter and flow control handle designed for use in residential and light commercial plumbing applications. Finished in satin nickel, this cross-style handle provides a classic, timeless aesthetic suited to traditional and transitional fixture designs. It is used to divert or regulate water flow as part of a larger valve or trim assembly. Licensed plumbers and experienced remodelers install this type of handle during new construction or bathroom renovation work.

This handle is part of the Newport Brass Chesterfield line and is designed for use in plumbing trim assemblies where a diverter or flow control function is required. The cross handle configuration is a common choice in traditional bath and shower applications. It is typically installed as part of a complete valve trim package in residential bath, shower, or tub settings.

Compatibility

Designed for use within the Newport Brass Chesterfield collection as a diverter and flow control handle trim component. Confirm valve body compatibility before ordering, as this handle is a trim piece and requires a compatible valve body for proper installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before beginning any trim work. This handle is a trim component only and does not include a valve body. Verify that the receiving valve body is compatible and properly installed before attaching the handle.
