Replacement cartridge known by spare part code 3561R / 2552R 2552R-H 2552R-C.
You may need a conversion bush but you wont know this until you remove the valve from the tap. Sometimes the bush remains in the tap and other times it comes out stuck to the cartridge. If they come out together you can try and separate the bush which means you can re use the bush. If you cannot get it apart then you will need to purchase a new bush. You can return any unused parts to us.

If your tap is leaking at the neck (this is where the swivel spout joins on to the tap body) then you need to replace the Spout seals. The Seals/O'ring kit is known by code 1260R. You must use silicone lubricant on the new O Rings when fitted.
We supply the compatible 1263R aerator.
We now sell new lever handles. Please note they are plain and do not have H / C on them. They are compatible with part 3259R. They come with screws. If you need a screw on its own you can order SS81-S

Use 2mm allen key to undo handle. The grub screw is located on the underside of the handle. You can pull the lever forwards to access the screw at the back if you need more space.

Yes you can but it can be very hard to remove due to corrosion. You can try using very hot water, followed by cold water over it, to help break the corrosion seal.
