concealed flush handles

[hammers4spanner]

Been doing some work at on a female toilets where they have concealed cisterns and have the long flush handles .Like in picture shown, however they keep going faulty as the screw at the end keeps pinging off .

Any one know of a decent replacement?

 

[ShaunCorbs]

screw snaps or just works it self loose

 

[hammers4spanner]

Works itself loose all the time .

Tighten them up a treat and week later same again

Loctite thread locker?

Just saying.

 

[ShaunCorbs]

have you tried changing to a plastic handle/arm?

 

[hammers4spanner]

Changed a couple and still happens doing my head in

 

[ShaunCorbs]

could you drill and nut and bolt it if locktight fails?

 

[rpm]

Don`t know if they are old hat but seen some with a clamp and a nut underneath but the nut goes rusty so you end up having to cut the clamp to remove the arm.

I'd try some locktite first

+1 for locktite.
