I've got the 15 & 22 pipe slices and the stubby wide jaw spanner they're well made bits of kit - although when I looked in their catalogue different products are made to different standards.

I want this kit but will feel robbed at £167.00

I do a lot of taps but I have the jaw droppers and monoblock spanners..
I don't own any Nerrad tools, are the worth the money?

Nerrad tools seem to evoke a 'Marmite' response from what I've seen. THey were very popular fro a while but then backed off marketing so have fallen away somewhat.

Personally, I have only ever stuck with tools from toolmakers such as Bahco etc. I do not go for even the likes of Rothenburger anymore as just like the likes of Stanley, they are just too poorly made, too slack, too much tolerance which, on a tight tap nut, is pretty darned important when you're using them as your main source of income generation.

I agree with Shaun here. There's one other thing. If you are changing taps often cos there is a problem getting spares, maybe look at improving that situation. That way the pain in the bum problem of having to 'change em' goes away.
 
My lips are as tight as our WRAS approval :cool::cool::cool: :D:D:D unlike 70%+ of the taps sold in the UK & 99.973% of cartridges.

Hey I thought I was being perfectly fair!
It's not my place, neither, to be honest, is it right to outright promote. That's for you 'clever' lot - hint hint. :rolleyes:
 
Aww come on you horrible lot. I was genuinely trying to help. :(

Let's face it we've all struggled for years doing the bl00dy things but thanks to, and I quote, "A bl00dy good bit of kit" it's now a doddle...

Oh, on a course yesterday in sunny Gloucester training Dyno Plumbing lads, someone made a perfect new 3/4" cartridge in 4 minutes 56 seconds smashing the previous record of 12 mins 7 seconds... ;)

Actually scrap that as even though I was one of the first people to see it at a trade show I still didn’t get a free kit:p:p:p:p

How the hell did you get one? Not having you paid retail for that bad boy:p:p:p
Click to expand...

Ordered from the website I do a lot of disabled Stuff eg changing to lever taps and repairing

And I did no special discounts
 
In short it works out around £15 for the 1/2 and £20 for the 3/4 each fully

Really? We designed it to be £15 per valve in a kit. :confused::confused::confused:
Click to expand...

1/2 one is around 8 a valve plus about 3-5 for the extras

3/4 one is around 10 a valve plus about 3-5 for the extras

Is the adhesive any good?
Click to expand...

Oh gosh I'd forgotten about that! Hell we changed from that ages ago to a more robust, faster, safer and more reliable method. Its all now, genuinely, a piece of cake - hence the record time. When you saw it we had to wait 10 minutes for the adhesive to go off!!!

We did 140 odd demos whilst we were at Installer. 1, just 1 out of all of those people mentioned it being 'faffy' and it struck a chord with me. So 6 weeks later I'd redesigned it to what it is now and even I am happy with it :eek::eek::eek:
