Abstract
A faucet handle includes a hub, handle body and end cap. The handle body includes a first end with external threads and a second end with internal threads and a central bore extending between the first and second ends. The end cap includes a shank with a bore configured to receive a driver, such as a hex wrench, and threads to engage the internal threads of the second end. In use, a consumer inserts a driver through the central bore to engage the bore of the end cap and screw the end cap into the second end of the handle body. The handle body is then screwed into the hub.
