Meynell 928.49 Cartridge Head (Head for SPSL0006J) - Mira

Summary

Meynell 928.49 Cartridge Head for SPSL0006J

The Meynell 928.49 cartridge head is a replacement head component used in conjunction with the SPSL0006J cartridge assembly fitted to selected Mira shower valves. It forms part of the internal control mechanism and interfaces with the valve body to regulate water flow and shut-off performance.

Function

This cartridge head provides the sealing and control surface required for reliable operation of the cartridge assembly. As the head wears or becomes affected by limescale, the valve may become harder to operate or may no longer shut off cleanly. A common symptom of wear is water continuing to drip from the shower head when the valve is turned off, indicating that the sealing surfaces are no longer effective.

Confirmed Compatibility

The 928.49 cartridge head is specified for use as the head component on the SPSL0006J cartridge used in compatible Mira shower valves. It should only be installed where the existing cartridge assembly and service documentation confirm SPSL0006J as the correct cartridge reference.

Installation Notes

Before replacement isolate the water supply and access the cartridge assembly according to the valve service instructions. Remove the worn cartridge head from the SPSL0006J assembly and fit the replacement head, ensuring correct orientation and full seating. Reassemble the valve and test for smooth operation and complete shut-off.

When Replacement Is Recommended

Replacement is recommended if the shower becomes difficult to control, if flow cannot be stopped fully, or if water continues to drip from the shower head when switched off. Fitting a new 928.49 cartridge head restores proper sealing and control without replacing the complete cartridge or valve body.
