## Description

HWMATE Ceramic Disc Single Handle Faucet Cartridge Replacement 1-37/64″ / 40mm Diameter - desertcart.com

Review: Perfect fit, one small problem… - This product was a perfect replacement for the cartridge in my bathroom sink. They provided measurements in the description, so I was able to verify that it would fit my faucet before I began installing it. The installation involves several steps. One. First remove the handle from your Fossett using an Allen wrench. Two. Second unscrew, the round cover plate that covers the cartridge. Three. Then undo the bolt that holds the cartridge in place. Four remove the old cartridge, clean out the surface area of the inside mating area, install the new cartridge, making sure that the two knobs go into the holes in your faucet. Five. Tightened the cap on the cartridge back up making sure you don’t cross thread it and that it is snug enough to make a seal. Six. Put the cover plate on and then put your handle back on. The only reason I included these instructions is because the cartridge itself does not come with instructions. It is very simple to do. Oh yes, don’t forget to turn off your water before you start any of this.
Review: Great fit. - Good quality at a good price and perfect fit without leaks. My shower was only dispensing cold water. I couldn't find it at any big box store, I had to go to specifically plumbing store and paid $50. I learned my lesson and bought this as backup and 3 months later the $50 broke down and one year later it's working great. Thanks

## Features

- Ceramic disc cartridge.
- This cartridge can be used in kitchen sink, bath and basin taps.
- Durable for 500,000 times' life cycle test.
- This cartridge fits generally single handle monobloc style faucets.
- If you have a leaking tap and the water is coming from the spout, the cartridge may be the problem. Taps leak due to limescale scratching the ceramic surface particularly in hard water areas and over time the leak gets worse and worse until a replacement is needed. You can measure the size of your cartridge to make sure that this fits by removing the existing one.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size faucet cartridge is more water flow**
A: While I don’t know the differences in flow rate, the sizing refers to the size housing that the cartridge will fit. If an undersized cartridge is selected, then you won’t have a seal and an oversized cartridge will not fit in the housing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked as expected

Installed this in a kitchen faucet that was leaking. While visually it was slightly different than what we removed, functionally it seems to be identical, and has stopped the leak.
