É manípulo de torneira?

Manípulo se usa no Brasil também?
Não pode ser simplesmente torneira, certo?

Notes to answerer
Asker: Obrigada! Mas será que se pode usar manípula (e manípulo) também? Estou intrigada pois vi na verdade manípulo em alguns sites brasileiros, mas em maior números em sites portugueses. Também vi manivela... mas esse não parece ser adequado, apenas baseado no meu palpite...
