Home Centre 40mm Lever Tap Mixer C4 Ceramic Disc Cartridge Shower Bath Basin Repair Kitchen

I took the tap off because the grub screw access was at the rear and too close to use the Allen key to remove the lever. This was a fault of the tap design and placement. The cartridge itself was straightforward although a large adjustable grip was needed. It remains to be seen how long it will last. A local plumbers merchants disparaged these as cheap and nasty, but if it only lasts a couple of years it remains cost effective for a diy repair

Mixer tap cartridges can wear over time and begin to stick and/or leak. There are several different types and sizes, but once you have identified the correct one for your tap then it is a straightforward spanner job to replace the unit and make your tap like new. Good price and delivery from this supplier.** Be very wary of over-tightening the top nut when fitting. I did this and caused the base of the plastic fitting to crack. Had to buy another one... Suggest trying finger-tight at first, and if it's water-tight then leave it there.

easy to fit good part

Fits our Bristan (Prism from memory) tap and works perfectly, replacing the original tap cartridge made my Sedal.Review placed after installation so cannot comment on longevity.Paid extra for additional speedy delivery and arrived sooner than expected.

Took the old part off and tried to get a replacement locally. No joy at B&Q, Wickes, or Toolstation. Screwfix did have a similar one but was slightly shorter. Thought I would try Plumbase, and the guy in there looked like I had walked in with an alien. lots of sucking through his teeth, head shaking and tutting before announcing that I "would not be able to find one of those!" I checked that I was indeed in a plumbers merchants as it was a piece of plumbing I was looking for. At that point our brief relationship deteriorated rapidly, so I went home and ordered this which arrived the following morning and was spot on. I am now taking the old one up the road to insert it into my friend at Plumbase.

Couldn't find a similar mixer cartridge in the usual DIY shops, but found this one on Amazon which was a perfect match. Fitted with no issues and working find so far. Only fitted recently so can't comment on durability, but will update review if I have any issues down the line.

Lasted three weeks before leaking. On removing cartridge, it had started to disintegrate around both O rings. Really disappointed as it was not overtightened was when fitted.

Excellent, fitted perfectly and stopped the leak. A great solution to an emergency as it wasn't available in various diy/plumber stores. So saved the day (and pocket) ordering online. Delivered the next day with amazon prime. Very happy customer.

Non metto la quinta stella perché non posso valutare la durata nel tempo. Per il resto tutto ok

La vecchia cartuccia era rovinata e ho fatto fatica a trovare la 40 alta. Problema risolto. Fortuna che c' è Amazon
