Convert taps to ceramic disc.

Plenty of ceramic disc taps. Posted 2013 sep 27 2 50 pm aest ref. Post by gtv16v mon sep 13 2010 5 54 pm i ve been shopping around in order to replace the traditional washer type inserts on two pairs of bathroom taps as the brass skirt that helps seat the washer has fractured on two of them and another has a habit of getting jammed and preventing a good flow of water. The retaining washer here acts just like a normal tap washer providing a seal between the tap and ceramic disc.

Great savings free delivery collection on many items. Ceramic disc taps are designed to last a lifetime. I usually replace the entire valve rather than just washer as the old are usually limescaled or corroded and the valves are not expensive circa 3 at b q where i purchased a couple today. No leaks no drips just a fully working ceramic disc ta.

They are kept in place by water pressure. Buy tap conversion kits and get the best deals at the lowest prices on ebay. Unfortunately in hard water areas they do not and it is as well to know how they operate and how to service them. It is most often just a case of dismantling the moving parts and servicing them.

Apologies if this is a dumb question but i am replacing a few standard valves on my taps which have either seized up or dripping. I can t find a listing for ceramic mixer cartridges either pretty sure they still sell them though. Remove the retaining washer and tap it on the kitchen or bathroom surface.
