Clark shower arms

A shower arm is the rigid pipe that connects a wall or ceiling outlet to the shower head itself. It is a distinct component from a full shower system, which typically bundles an arm and head together, and this range covers Clark-branded arms sold on their own.

When you need a shower arm on its own

There are two common reasons to buy a shower arm separately rather than as part of a full shower system. The first is replacement, an old or damaged arm can corrode, crack, or develop a leak at the wall connection over time, and replacing just the arm is more straightforward than replacing the entire shower fitting. The second is building a custom shower setup, where you want to pair a specific shower head of your choice with an arm bought separately, rather than being limited to whatever head comes bundled with a pre-packaged system.

Wall mount versus ceiling mount

Shower arms are generally designed for either wall mounting or ceiling mounting. A wall mounted arm extends out from the wall at an angle to bring the shower head to the right position over the user. A ceiling mounted arm drops straight down from above, which suits a more open overhead shower layout. These two mounting styles are not interchangeable, so confirm which type matches your existing plumbing outlet before ordering a replacement or a new arm for a custom build.

Arm length and reach

The length of the arm determines how far the shower head sits from the wall or ceiling outlet, which affects both the reach of the water flow and how it lines up with the user standing underneath. A shorter arm may leave the shower head sitting too close to the wall for a comfortable, well positioned spray, particularly for taller household members, while a longer arm extends the head further into the shower space. Measure your existing setup or consider the height of the main users in the household before choosing arm length.

Thread and connection compatibility

Because a shower arm is being bought as an individual component, thread and connection compatibility with your existing plumbing and with the shower head you intend to attach is essential. Check the connection type and thread size listed on the product against both your wall or ceiling outlet and the shower head you plan to pair it with, since a mismatch at either end will prevent a secure, leak-free installation.

Before you order

  • Confirm whether you need a wall mounted or ceiling mounted arm
  • Measure existing arm length or consider user height for reach and positioning
  • Check thread and connection compatibility with your wall or ceiling outlet
  • Confirm the arm's connection is compatible with the shower head you plan to attach
  • If replacing an old arm, check for matching finish if it will sit near other visible tapware

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a shower arm and a full shower system
A shower arm is just the rigid pipe connecting the wall or ceiling outlet to the shower head, while a full shower system typically bundles an arm and head together as one product. Buying an arm separately makes sense if you are replacing a damaged arm or building a custom setup with a shower head of your own choosing.
Why would I buy a shower arm instead of a full shower kit
The two main reasons are replacing an old or corroded arm without needing to replace the whole shower fitting, or building a custom shower where you want to choose your own shower head and pair it with a separate arm, rather than accepting whatever head comes bundled with a pre-packaged kit.
How do I know if I need a wall mounted or ceiling mounted arm
This depends on your existing plumbing outlet. A wall mounted arm extends from the wall at an angle, while a ceiling mounted arm drops straight down from above for a more open overhead layout. Check which type your current outlet is set up for before ordering, as the two mounting styles are not interchangeable.
Does the length of the shower arm matter
Yes, arm length affects how far the shower head sits from the wall or ceiling and how well the spray lines up with the person showering. A shorter arm can leave the head sitting too close to the wall, particularly for taller users, so it is worth measuring your existing setup or considering household height before choosing a length.
Will any shower head fit any Clark shower arm
Not automatically. You need to check the thread size and connection type on the arm against the shower head you intend to attach, as well as against your existing wall or ceiling outlet. A mismatch at either end can prevent a secure, leak-free fit, so confirming compatibility before ordering is important.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a rail shower and why is it popular in Australian bathrooms?

A rail shower (also called a slider rail shower or shower rail kit) includes a hand shower mounted on an adjustable rail, allowing users to slide the shower head up or down to their preferred height. Rail showers are among the most practical and versatile shower options available, they suit users of different heights, are ideal for bathing children, and are easy to use for rinsing down shower walls. They are widely used in family bathrooms across Australia.

What length shower rail do I need?

Standard shower rails in Australia are typically 600mm or 900mm in length. A 600mm rail is compact and suited to smaller showers, while a 900mm rail gives greater height adjustment range, ideal for households with users of varying heights. The rail is installed vertically on the shower wall, and the hand shower clips onto a holder that slides along the rail.

What is the flow rate of a rail shower, and does it need to meet WELS standard

In Australia, all shower heads including those sold as part of rail shower kits must carry a WELS (Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards) rating. Most Australian rail showers achieve a 3-star WELS rating with a flow rate of 9L/min or less. Some water-saving models reach 4 stars. A lower flow rate doesn't necessarily mean a weaker shower, modern shower heads use air-injection technology to maintain pressure while reducing water use.

Can I replace my existing shower head with a hand shower?

Yes, in most cases a standard hand shower with a hose can be connected to an existing shower arm using a standard 1/2" thread connection. If you currently have a fixed overhead shower, you may want to replace the shower arm with a diverter or combo outlet to enable switching between the fixed position and the hand shower. A plumber can advise on the best approach for your specific setup.

What mixer do I need for a rail shower with overhead shower?

You need a shower mixer with a diverter function, either a built-in diverter on the mixer body, a separate diverter valve, or a combination shower outlet that manages both functions. Consult your plumber during the rough-in stage to ensure the water outlets are positioned correctly for the rail and overhead positions. The Blue Space stocks complete combination rail-and-overhead shower sets from brands including Phoenix, Meir, and Caroma.

What is a wall shower head?

A wall shower (or wall-mounted shower head) is a fixed shower head mounted to the shower wall via a shower arm. The shower head position is fixed, though some models have an adjustable arm allowing the angle and extension to be altered. Wall showers are a classic, simple, and practical choice for any bathroom.

What is a shower mixer and how does it work?

A shower mixer (or shower tap) is the control valve that regulates the flow and temperature of water to your shower. A single-lever mixer controls both temperature and flow with one handle. A thermostatic mixer maintains a pre-set water temperature even if pressure changes elsewhere in the system, a safer and more convenient option, particularly for households with children. Shower mixers in Australia must comply with AS 3718 standards.
