slow dripping tap on a new installed tap gland

[wijcc]

Hi all,

I have just replaced glands on a kitchen tap (a 1/4 turn) but it now has a real slow drip on it - despite it being a gland there is a slow drip. How can I get rid of this/fix this drip please?
These are the new ones installed - https://www.screwfix.com/p/flomasta-1-2-bsp-quarter-turn-ceramic-tap-glands-pack/2611f

Did you make sure that the mating surface in the tap where bottom of valve sits was clear of debris?

It could be a faulty valve

I love the way SF and the other sheds mis-label $hit. They are simple 1/2 turn ceramic valves, they are not glands/cartridges or anything other silly thing and nor are they for single lever (monobloc) taps but anyway -

If the valve is passing when fully off then they are either faulty valves or not the right valves for the tap.

Thanks all, I will try getting another one and see if that resolved it.
