Bath Mixer Tap

Options
Anyone come across a half turn bath mixer tap before? Need to replace a leaking cartridge but can't locate a 22mm, only 15mm half turn.

    Pic of tap, Cap'n?
    Are you sure it's half-turn?
    And, have you removed a cartridge for sizing yet? If not, worth doing. Take photos, measurements, count the number of splines...
  • Thanks for replies! Yes I'm sure it's half turn because the handle is elliptical and lines up with the tap body when off and when fully on! I didn't believe it either. It's not my tap, it belongs to someone who doesn't know if there are isolation valves on the system, so I need to turn water off before getting measurements.
