If you take your old washer with you they may be able to find a replacement.

Homebase may have them in too.

I made mine out of a bit of old car inner tube, machined a punch on the lathe to the right size.

What a fuss! lol, Tap connections are neither 22mm nor 15mm, they are 3/4" or 1/2" with a 22m or 15mm pipe conection, the washer was simply a half inch tap washer, good you got sorted though KSH.

Re: Attention any plumbers

I did get it sorted out, thing that threw me was, the old one that fell out in numerous pieces seemed to be round - like an "O" ring and not a flat washer, the washer I actually needed Is just a normal tap washer, I'll know for next time
