I've a fairly old fitting on my bath, and today the bath mixer tap head became so worn that it is turning without gripping the inner tap, so I can't turn it on using the handle.
Everything else with the fitting is fine, it's just the knob which goes on the fitting that is worn (at the moment I've removed the knob and I'm using a wrench to turn it on in the morning!). I don't want to replace the whole fitting as I assume I should be able to find something fairly cheaply to fit on top of the mixer to enable me to turn it on. However since its a generic fitting (not branded), I can't find something at any plumbing suppliers which will fit (I could glue it, but that's a last resort).
Any ideas of where I could find something which would do the trick would be greatly appreciated (even something I could glue into the existing handle to grip the fitting would work)
Thanks.
