The Thomas Dudley 3/4 inch Pillar Tap Washer is an essential replacement component designed for homeowners and professional plumbers seeking to eliminate leaks and drips in standard pillar taps. Its primary benefit is the restoration of a reliable, watertight seal that prevents water waste and faucet damage. Please note that this washer is specifically sized for 3/4 inch pillar taps; it is critical to verify your tap size before purchase, as it will not provide a proper seal on 1/2 inch or other non-standard fixture sizes.

This washer is specifically for 3/4 inch pillar taps. You can verify your size by measuring the diameter of the faucet body or checking the markings on your existing plumbing fixtures.
No, this washer is too large for 1/2 inch taps. Attempting to use it will result in a poor seal and potential damage to the faucet internals.
You will need a set of adjustable spanners or a wrench to remove the tap headgear and access the jumper assembly.
If the brass seat inside the tap body is grooved or rough, simply replacing the washer may not stop the leak. You may need to use a tap reseating tool to smooth the seat surface.
Yes, it is designed to withstand standard domestic hot and cold water temperatures found in residential plumbing systems.
The valve seat might be damaged or pitted; check for rough edges and use a seat dressing tool if necessary.
Ensure the washer is properly centered on the jumper and not caught on the valve seat during reassembly.
To install, first turn off the water supply at the local isolation valve or the mains. Use a wrench to remove the tap headgear, unscrew the retaining nut on the jumper, and replace the old washer with the new Thomas Dudley component. Ensure the seat of the tap is clean and free of mineral deposits before seating the new washer. This product is strictly for 3/4 inch pillar tap systems. To maintain the life of the washer, ensure the tap is not overtightened when closing, as excessive force can deform even high-quality rubber components over time.
