Franke Olympus drip, but screw rounded off

rss91 · 27 Dec 2021

I've bought a replacement cartridge for my Franke Olympus, I believe it's the hot side which is dripping.
Unfortunately I can't seem to unscrew the tap, it seems as though the screw may have become rounded off. I've tried using the allen key which came with the cartridge as well as others I have.

What are my options now?!

Thanks

If the allen key fits but wont turn spray a little wd40, leave it to soak in and try again

If it is seized or rounded you may need a new tap, or have to put up with the drip.
