tap diverter - bath taps

nbkew · 12 May 2006

The diverter in my bath taps has broken.

Does anyone have any ideas where I might source a replacement from? Local plumbers merchants have not been fruitful and I have tried a couple of manufcturers.

I do not know the make of the taps. If anyone recognises the make in the attached picture (eventually) that would be most helpful

Thanks

Could be any make.
Try dismantling the mechanism. Grease and new O rings might fix it. At least you're on the dry side of the taps.
NB - some of these things are coming in from China for a fiver a complete set...

have dismantled, the brass lug has snapped off from the inside. O rings OK

Afraid you`ll have to get a new set

have tried fixing/repairing them from known Brit makers before........no spares and the brass dezincifies and breaks eventually even in the best ones. Should be a straightforward swap.
