Swift Bathroom Tap spout popped off

[Mel]

Could the pop off type just be a precaution (fail safe) to fall off if there is a build up of pressure with debris?

Much like in my case

Could be. Would be great if it was, however the consensus on FB is that they are just rubbish taps prone to leaking as well as popping the ends off.

Like every thing else, they could make goods that last years, but then there spare parts sales would fall. Like a chap I know who used to sell cars, he hated selling Toyota,s , reason being when they drove away he never seen them again. Those days they were made bomb proof.

Sounds like the retaining clip might have failed or come loose. If the spout isn’t damaged, you might be able to reattach it with a new clip or some plumber’s tape for a tighter fit.
