Tap valve cartridge replacement

[fishbyname]

The filter tap in our kitchen is leaking. I can see the cartridge is a bit worn so trying to get a replacement.

After a lot of searching I thought I had finally found it, but then realised it's about 1mm out (see pictures).

Does anyone have any idea what the spec of what I'm looking for is? The only thing I know about the tap is that it was from B&Q about 10 years ago.

Hi Fishbyname

This is a suggestion for you. On some tap cartridges you can turn the rubber seal (the red one) around and refit the cartridge. This doesn't always work but worth a try.

If it doesn't work take the red seal from the new cartridge and fit it in the old one and that should be ok.

Hope this helps.
