The trip lever covers are available in Chrome, Brushed Nickel, and Oil-Rubbed Bronze finishes.
This kit contains:
- BIG leak-proof silicone gasket (dark blue) x 1
- BIG leak-proof zinc alloy trip lever face plate x 1

Couldn't load pickup availability
As a previous reviewer mentioned, the internal portion of the lever of BIG Overflow Trip Lever is too long for the older plumbing this cover is apparently meant for. Fortunately, I had the tools (i.e., saw, bench grinder, file, drill) and ability to modify the internal lever to make it fit and work for my bathtub drain. Aside from that, it looks and fits well (I wasn't able to, and didn't need to, use the gasket and aluminum mounting plate). Couldn't give it a five-star review because of these things. Outside of that, a good product. (Granted, the options available on the internet for an oversized bathtub trip lever are quite limited.)
Over phone, I was told by telephone support that the only difference between Big and Normal size is the diameter of the round plate. Not true. I found out that the inside lever is much longer. Big one barely works on my tub. I don't want to send it in for exchange (shipping charges). I wish the telephone support knew their product little better.
Also, there is a design flaw. Water can leak in through the two screw holes. I had to use thin hemp rope like a plumber's tape.
I had a to modify a little bit but overall this was a great product. Also great help from customer support.
Worked great
This product is a creative solution to the replacement of a bathtub overflow gasket. It directs all the overflow into a very short flexible tube rather than relying on a tight fit with a conventional gasket.
I had a little trouble getting the new trip lever to fit perfectly with my previous trip drain assembly. It would be nice to get some instructions! There are some helpful Youtubes available to give encouragement.
