Frequently asked questions about the Sorico tap

How To remove the Sorico handle: there will be a grub screw on the underside of the handle. If you require an allen key to remove the handle then you can purchase our Allen Key Pack (SK01-S). The handle will then pull off.

Your tap handle may utilise a plastic handle adaptor / tap head carrier. Sometimes this can wear or break and we can supply this part if you require a new one (Our part SA03-S). Original tap handle adaptor code SP3530

How to remove your cartridge - Our Cartridge Valve removal tool (ST03) is available to enable easy removal and fitting of the cartridges which are recessed into the tap body. The old valve may have two flats instead of a hex nut. Our tool has two ends. One end to remove the cartridge with two flats and one end to remove/fit new cartridge with hex nut.

If your Sorico tap is leaking from where the spout joins the tap body (the neck) then you need to replace the O Rings inside the spout. Our kit is compatible with the 3473R.
