Summary
The Bristan 08SN40L0001.04 is a 40mm stepped lever cartridge used in selected single-lever basin mixer taps and bath/shower mixer taps. The cartridge controls mixed water flow through the tap body and helps restore smooth lever movement where the original cartridge has become stiff, worn or is allowing water to pass when the tap is turned off.

Apply a small amount of WRAS approved silicone grease to the O-rings to help the cartridge seat correctly and reduce installation friction.
