Inner tap cartridge

Can you not just buy the rubber washer instead of all the unit

Yes


But why would you want to? Google the cartridge code number and you can often get them for about £6. Pop it in for a trouble free fix.

That link takes you to domestic ceramic disc taps and possible replacement parts, it does not feature any caravan ceramic disc taps such as Reich etc simply because they do not sell them as an individual item.

So the answer is still No, the washers are not available on their own.

I would agree, zoooming into the picture shows the 3 rings are linked. I have not seen that on a domestic one. I can remember pricing one for a caravan in the past and finding that a replacement was generic. Which was much better than paying the inflated prices the stealer wanted. But perhaps prices have come down since. eg, if this were to fit the OP’s tap it’s a great price.

Anyone got one for sale one that's not leaking put a new cartridge in and still leaking so looking to buy a replacement with the same push fitting on the bottom hose. Thanks

Are the rubber rings sitting on a nice clean flat surface? Can a thin shim be added to put a little more pressure on them. Otherwise, why not try for a replacement.

A very long time ago I replaced a caravan wash hand basin tap with a domestic one. It was easy enough to do just needed a couple of conversion fittings. Quality was far superior and it was a fraction of the price of the original but it was heavier. But I think caravan taps might be better priced now then at that time.

PS just seen your new topic which makes it clear you have micro switch taps so a domestic replacement will not work.

Could try a caravan breakers, but to be honest you would have no idea of its internal condition.

Are the pigtails screwed into the bottom of the tap - in which case you need a new tap head only and can reuse the current fittings?
This link might suggest so...

Just had another go at getting it fitting as tight as possible and I think it's sorted just put some kitchen roll between the pipes and left the pump on will check in a bit. Thanks for all your help over and out from the Isle of man
 
Hello Oatsey

I see you have started three new threads about a tap problem. Inevitably there is likely to be some overlap on the subject matter and its becomes difficult to to follow, and the likelihood of duplication rapidly increases.

Can you ask one of the mods (Damian or Parksy) to combine all three so all your answers will be in one place?
 
Wow this thread is nearly four years old.
What make is your tap?
From which caravan does it come?
The cartridge is available from lots of online caravan suppliers. You need to know the make and model.
My tap.failed recently and quite frankly I just bought a new tap. The seating where the cartridge goes wears out rendering the replacement a failure. Hence for me new tap

Its not mine it's a friend that needs help. Lunar quasar I think 2005
 
Sorry I can't download the attachment, my number is 290107 stamped on it. It is the same as the top photo. Failing getting one I will replace the full tap for my friend.
 
The tap is nearly 20 years old! Sorry but a cartridge won’t fix it. Buy a new tap and look forward to another 20 years trouble free😁
