I have an Old Dante Tripure Tap (pre 2019) that takes the 3666R Spout. What replacement Spout do I need ?

Carron Phoenix Dante Tripure Tap Spout

Question: I have the pre 2019 older Dante Tripure Tap that took the earlier Spout 3666R. Will there be issues fitting the new Improved Spout 3850R ?

Answer: No issues at all – the later Spout 3850R that is in current Dante Tripure Tap is perfectly compatible with the older (earlier) model.

Explanation:

The original Dante  Tripure Tap had the Spout 3666R which came with the O Ring Kit 1260R i.e 3 O Rings.

From 2019 the manucturer of this Tap has added an additional small white ptfe ring (i.e 1260R O Ring Kit + extra small white O Ring = 3668R O Ring Kit). New Code for this Spout with 3668R O Ring Kit is 3850R.

They have been making this change to all Spouts for all models that take a grub screw. Even if you have the older Spout with only the 3 O Rings, the New Spout with 4 O Rings is the correct Spout for your Dante Tripure Tap, irrespective of when your own Tap was produced or whether your own tap has 3 Rings or the 4 Rings.

See here below for the older Spout 3666R and the newer Spout 3850R.  Yes, one looks longer, but it makes no difference as there is space in your own older Tap to accomodate the new extended spout internally.

Difference between Genuine and Compatible ?

To maintain your warranty and the longevity of your Tap you should replace any parts with only Genuine Spare Parts. "Genuine" means that it is coming from the manufacturer of your own Tap. You might see the word 'Compatible' used on other websites. You might even see same Part Code BUT "Compatible" means that it does NOT come from your own Tap manufacturer. Genuine Tap Parts means that the Parts have been tried and tested in your Tap model. It also guarantees that it will fit your own Tap correctly (provided that you have selected the correct replacement Part). We have had customers who fitted compatible parts in their taps and damaged other connecting parts in the process. It can work out more costly in the end to use Compatible parts.
