mixer tap washer replacement
I want to change the washer in a kitchen mixer tap (I have changed before abput 10years ago ) but this time i seem to be at a loss as to how to get to the barrell The taps are clear plastic type I take the screw out from the top and take the cover off but then i'm left with a plastic sleeve which still turns the tap on/off - i cant see how to get that portion of the plastic off it has the screw spindle in the top - which the main tap screws into - then around that is a nut shape - which aligns inside the main tap cover i have removed i just cant see how to take that sleeve part off ........ i feel it should maybe just pull off - but do not want to break it a picture of the mixer tap is shown here .CAPRI CP RANGE, DUAL FLOW SINK MIXER 7" SPOUT TAPSHOP - discount taps store - CAPRI CP/CPsink taps & mixers |

Re: mixer tap washer replacement
the plastic at the top has a hexagal shap on top with a metal nut inside is this nut part of the barrell attachemnet so i should end up with a plastic cup (upsidedown) on the top of the tap when i pull it off, will be the nut i can see and the screw thread as part of the barrell,
and then i will be left with a hexaganal hole in the top of the cup, when i pull it off |
