Basic plumbing SOS. Got a leaky tap. Opened it up, extracted cartridge, toddled along to local plumbing supplies expecting to be rewarded with a simple purchase/fix and to bathe in the warm glow of a DIY job done competently. Which is a glow I am not hugely accustomed to. The grumpy plumbing man took one look at the cartridge and just said 'no'. Apparently it's really unusual and they don't stock any. I asked if he could advise any search terms/specs to help me find online. "no". He just said do a google and find a picture that looks the same. Having been through all results on ebay+amazon I can't find a match. Anyone able to ID or offer suggestions of what to look for/where to look? Cheers
Doesn’t look like a standard one that most taps use now, if it’s something specialist sometimes it’s cheaper to replace the full tap than buy the cartridge which is bonkers
Cheers for the response, that is looking like it might be the way forwards. Or just use the under-the-sink shut-off when not being used as I'm planning to redo the entire kitchen in the next 6 months anyway....
