Monobloc tap keep slipping
Posted: Thu Jan 07, 2010 8:32 pm
Hi all,
Moved in to this house a couple of years ago, and after a good while the kitchen (monobloc) tap has started slipping around.
I assumed it was a simple tightening issue, so bought some of those handy spanners but couldn't get it any tighter. I read the project page here, removed the threaded bar, eased up the bolt, and refitted it all as tight as I could (real He-Man effort going on) but it *still* slips round.
The washer between the sink and the tap is sound and in place, but I just can't get it to stop slipping (though it is a great deal better than before I started fiddling).
Any tips? Ta!
