Use the Allen wrench if you have an American Standard single handle kitchen faucet to unscrew the handle off the base. For double handle faucets, you can use a screwdriver.

Once you have removed the handle, it is time to install the new stem into the kitchen faucet. Make sure to secure it tightly into the faucet by putting all the screws back to place.

Cartridge faucet repair is often conducted when there are leaks on the rubber O-ring located at the bottom of the faucet. There are various tools used during repair such as wrench, plumber's grease, flat-head screwdriver, and O-ring.

Use the flat-head screwdriver to pry the index cap off the handle. Loosen up the single washer located on the cap's outer lip. Once you have unscrewed the handle, pull it out so you can see the handle adapter, which can either be cone-shaped or cylindrical, depending on the faucet model.

Twist the valve base in a counterclockwise manner using the wrench so you can withdraw the valve from the assembly. Use the plumber's grease to coat the O-ring before sliding it into the faucet. Once you slid the adapter, then screw the handle for your bathroom faucet. Test the water flow to ensure that the American Standard faucet repair is completed.
