Refresh a compatible close-coupled WC with the Roper Rhodes 40mm Universal Flush Button Upgrade. Choose Brushed Bronze, Brushed Brass, Brushed Nickel, Gunmetal or Black to coordinate the cistern button with your taps and bathroom accessories without replacing the whole suite.This rod-operated push-button upgrade has adjustable rods to suit a compatible cistern mechanism. The 40mm designation is a nominal product size, not a confirmed drilling dimension. Check the exact mounting opening, rod alignment and existing valve before ordering: “universal” does not mean it fits every WC.Key Features

Compatibility & InstallationThe existing product information lists Roper Rhodes Debut, Dana and Orbit, and Tavistock Orbit, Structure, Ion, Lansdown and Levant. Confirm the actual cistern and valve fitted, as different versions or replacement mechanisms may affect suitability.Before ordering, compare the existing button and lid opening with the required mounting arrangement. Your installer should check panel or lid thickness, internal clearance, rod reach and alignment with the valve. Do not drill or enlarge a ceramic lid using the nominal 40mm size as a template.Follow the attached installation guide when assembling and adjusting the button. Set the rods so the valve is not held down when the button is released, then check operation with the lid in its final position. Retain access for maintenance.This is not a universal replacement for cable-operated, pneumatic or electronic controls. A matching opening alone does not establish compatibility.Frequently Asked QuestionsDoes 40mm mean the exact hole size?Not necessarily. It is the nominal product designation. Confirm the required mounting dimensions for the selected part before ordering or modifying a lid.Will it fit my close-coupled cistern?Check the cistern model, existing valve, mounting opening, internal clearance and rod alignment. The listed ranges are a starting point, not a guarantee for every version or replacement mechanism.Which code corresponds to each finish?Brushed Bronze is TR9051, Brushed Brass TR9038, Brushed Nickel TR9055, Gunmetal TR9047 and Black TR9026.Are the rods adjustable?Yes. Check that their adjustment suits your actual valve-to-lid arrangement. Do not assume the adjustment dimensions of the separate 48mm model apply to this version.Is it a pneumatic or sensor button?No. This is a mechanical push-button upgrade with rods. Check the operating mechanism as well as the visible size before choosing a replacement.Will it change the flush volume?Flush volume depends on the cistern and valve settings, not the button finish or nominal size.Is a larger version available?Yes.
