Good Morning

On the weekend my bathroom tap would not turn off, even with the handle in the off position.

I took the tap apart and can see the cartridge has perished. I'm looking for a replacement part but can't seem to find anything.

Can you help? Here are a few photos if that may help.

Thanks in advance.

Matt

🙁🙁Call me a defeatist but I don't even try and source tap cartridges, you spend ages trying to find one, talking to manufacturers etc. Its better (in my humble opinion) just to replace the tap.😱
 
Unless the tap is branded (such as a Bristan, Grohe etc) it's not worth the effort. Even if you do find one it will be a large percentage of the cost of a new tap.
 
Evening.

Thanks for the replies. Looks like I'll have to admit defeat on that one and treat myself to a new tap. 🙁

Thanks again. Matt
