Tap Washer Replacement PVC

The Tap Washer Replacement PVC is designed to fit standard taps and prevent leaks by creating a tight seal inside the tap mechanism. It is ideal for repairing dripping taps without needing to replace the entire tap. This washer helps maintain water efficiency and reduces wastage.

To install, first turn off the water supply and remove the tap handle. Take out the old washer and replace it with the new PVC washer, ensuring it sits flat and snug in the washer seat. Avoid overtightening the tap after installation, as this can damage the washer and cause leaks. Tighten just enough to stop dripping.

This replacement washer is generally compatible with most standard compression taps but may not fit ceramic disc or cartridge taps. Check your tap type before purchasing to ensure compatibility. If unsure, consult with our Trade Partners for advice on the correct washer for your tap model.

A frequent error is overtightening the tap after fitting the new washer, which can deform the washer and cause leaks. To avoid this, tighten the tap handle gently until the dripping stops. Also, ensure the washer is properly seated and not twisted during installation for a secure fit.
