Frequently asked questions about the Spare parts for taps category
Spare parts for taps — what are they and why use them?
Spare parts for taps are components like cartridges, aerators, seals and adapters that control water flow, ensure tightness and restore tap function. Using these parts fixes leaks and mechanical faults without replacing the entire tap, extending its service life.
Which spare parts are needed for a bath tap?
For bath taps you commonly need cartridges for single- or two-handle mixers, aerators, seals and adapters for the shower hose and handheld head. Check thread size (M24, M28) and connection type before ordering parts.
Will Grohe spare parts fit my tap?
Grohe parts usually fit only Grohe taps or taps with identical cartridge, aerator and thread sizes. Check the part number and dimensions (cartridge diameter, thread M24/M28) against your original part to ensure compatibility.

How to determine aerator size: M24 or M28?
Measure the thread diameter at the tap spout outlet: about 24 mm indicates M24, about 28 mm indicates M28. Product listings state the thread type (M24/M28) and compatible models.
What materials and finishes do spare parts have?
Parts include brass cartridges and adapters, plastic and nylon aerators, silicone seals and stainless elements. Finishes such as chrome and matte nickel are common; material and finish are specified in the product card.
How do Perlin, Spider and Hansgrohe aerators differ in the catalogue?
Perlin and Spider are compatible models with various flow rates (e.g. 6 l/min) and spray modes; Hansgrohe supplies original SoftJet aerators with a soft spray. Descriptions list flow (L/min), thread type and compatibility.
How to replace a cartridge in a single-lever tap?
Replacing the cartridge requires removing the handle, trim cap and retaining clip, pulling out the old cartridge and fitting a new one of the same type and size. Ensure the new cartridge matches the model’s dimensions and inlet positions.
