Certified Brasstech 201-03N 8 Inch Shower Arm Polished Brass

The BRASSTECH 201-03N is an 8-inch shower arm designed for residential shower installations. This fixed shower arm connects a standard shower head to the in-wall supply fitting, serving as the extension that determines head position and angle. The 201-03N features a polished brass uncoated living finish, which is a lacquer-free surface that develops a natural patina over time rather than maintaining a static coated appearance. It is typically installed by a licensed plumber or experienced tradesperson during new construction or a bathroom remodel.

This shower arm is suited for residential bathroom applications where an 8-inch extension is needed between the wall flange and the shower head. The polished brass uncoated finish is designated as a living finish, meaning it is intentionally left without a protective coating so the brass surface ages naturally with use. This makes it a common choice in design-forward remodel work where an evolving, natural metal appearance is specified.

Key Features

• 8-inch length provides a standard extension from wall to shower head
• Polished brass uncoated living finish develops a natural patina over time

Installation Notes

Shower arm installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the water supply to the shower before beginning work. Use thread seal tape on all threaded connections and hand-tighten before applying final torque with a wrench, taking care not to over-tighten fittings on brass threads. Work should comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC standards.
