Hi,

I need to change the cartridge on my mixer tap as the tap will not stay up and keeps falling down, stopping the flow. It's an annoyance.

I've managed to remove the grub screw and get the lever off but there's no way I can get the spanner in to remove the cartridge.

I'm assuming that there's some sort of ring that I have to put over the cartridge which I can then attach a spanner to so I can remove the cartridge. Any ideas what these may be called so I can order one?

Here's a couple of pics. As you can see the profile is above the cartridge so can't get the spanner in.

Cheers
