Expert Insight:
The 216-128JKNF is more than just a cosmetic cap; it is a vital safety component in any laboratory environment. Installation Tip: These buttons are designed to be "snap-in," but they can be difficult to remove once seated. If you need to swap one out, use a small precision flat-head screwdriver or a plastic pry tool to gently lift the edge; avoid using metal pliers, which can mar the chrome finish of the handle. Pro Tip: Over time, exposure to harsh laboratory chemicals or UV light can cause plastic index buttons to fade or become brittle. Replacing faded buttons is an easy, low-cost way to ensure your facility passes safety inspections and ADA compliance audits. Because this is a genuine Chicago Faucets part, the "red" is color-matched to the rest of their laboratory line for a consistent look across the room.
