Replacement Brass Ceramic Disc Tap Valve Insert Gland Cartridge Quarter Turn by NANDEYIBI

My old taps were dripping. Took old inserts out compared them to these and seemed about right dimentions.Easy to install and fit perfectly.Very pleased, no drips!

Simple to fit and solved the leak fast

As someone else mentioned slight 2mm gap between tap and faucet but easy to install and stopped the drip that was leaking, excellent price and quality

It was easy to install; just hand tight initially then box spanner (15mm - different to the old one) to ensure no leaks (O-ring visible in the photo).Problems? Getting the old one out. For a start, it used a 17mm box spanner but was well seized-up. However, once I got that out (tip: I used two strips of very thin plywood either side of the kitchen tap, all wedged together with a rather large adjustable spanner to brace the tap as I cracked it open) and cleaned up the spigot where the new value was to go it was plain sailing.Warning! Although these are marked red/blue for hot and cold this is not (always) true. The hot tap I removed (on the left) was marked blue and I had to put a blue one back in, to get the tap lever to turn the correct way. Best to check before final tightening.Lovely smooth action with the new tap in place and best of all: NO DRIP!Good value for money assuming this doesn't start dripping in 2 years (the time it took for the old one to do so).

These cartridges screwed into the 1/2 inch pipe just fine but do not fit the tap handles. Buying a conversion kit instead. Got a refund.

This is advertised as fitting 70% of taps and I was pleased to find that it worked on mine, as this was my second attempt at finding a correct valve insert; (despite measuring carefully, it is impossible to count the grooves). I used it on my bathroom basin dual mixer taps. It was easy to install once the tap handle was removed with a wrench and following "how to" videos on You tube. I learned a new skill in the process, as I had previously never even heard of a ceramic disc tap valve insert gland cartridge! I had initially called in a plumber who did not know what size either and never returned. So at this price I think it is well worth a bit of trial and error. (after researching of course). I recommend trying this first.

Had to pack the tap with washers as it was lose even when fully tightened. This worked and does the job.

Looks and feels quality valve.
