Spare Tap Parts Indicators
Please note that earlier versions of this handle are more round and later versions are flatter at the tips.
While the same product code 1248R has been used on installation guides whether the handle is rounded OR flat tipped , we are using the code 3701R for the 'round' version of this handle, and 1248R for the later version of this handle with the flatter style tips to distinguish both styles.
The earlier 'rounder tip' style version is only available in Chrome and Brushed Nickel.
