Anyone coming across these tap fixing components. I'm struggling to find a box spanner to fit. The nut is about 33-34 mm between flats. New install and as far as I can see nothing apart from a box spanner will tighten this. Unless you have the opportunity fit before installing sink.

Don't think so, not enough room anyway. I did eventually find a 34mm/40mm box. I wasn't sure the sockets would be deep enough. They are pricey also. Thanks for the suggestions. Waste of time as the tap is sh......te a cheap Flexi pull down mixer. I've no doubt it will be replaced before long -
 
they are crap to fit, and crap tap, if its same as one i fit you have to put in place then push tails up to connect tap on,

Kitchen tap replacement different sized flexible hose
Hi, I bought a Grohe kitchen tap to replace my existing one and have found that it comes with fixed flexi hoses that are 3/8" instead of the UK standard 15mm fitting. I saw on an older thread that someone with a similar problem bought a tap tail adaptor from Screwfix with a compression nut and...

Would be very grateful for any comments about the following: Had new kitchen fitted at end of last year - same company supplied and fitted. I have a dispute that the tap fitted is not fit for purpose. I think the flow from the hot water tap is unacceptably slow. It takes ~ 4 1/2 mins to fill a...
