Abode Gosford Tap AT1020 O Ring Kit 3668R

This part is suitable for the Abode Gosford  Pre and Post 2009 Tap.
[previously called 1260R].

The current O Ring Kit consists of 2 black O Rings and 2 white ptfe Rings and Grub Screw.

Depending on the age of your own Spout, you might only have 1 white ptfe ring. And it was Called 1260R. Usually these white ptfe rings do not need to be replaced unless broken. The manufacturers have added the additional white ptfe ring for increased stability in later models.

Earlier 1260R O Ring Kit (current version has an extra slim white PTFE ring)

Note on the Grub screw included with the O Ring Kit: The grub screw takes a 2.5mm allen key. Please retain your existing grub screw in case it is an earlier version in which case you will need to use your existing grub screw.  This O Ring Kit covers several different UK Kitchen Taps so you might not require all the O Rings provided in the Kit.

• We always recommend that you should check your own Spout before ordering a new set of O Rings.
• This is important because if your spout has a pinhole (see example below), replacing the O-ring kit won't resolve the issue.
• If you have a pinhole you will need to replace the entire Spout'
• Here is our Guide : How to remove Kitchen Tap Spout so that you can check for pinholes.
• If you think that you have a pinhole, and do not know what Spout you need, then contact us with details of your tap, such as a picture and any other information (e.g., brand markings), so we can send you a link to the correct spout.
• Here is the example of a pinhole in a Spout.

Tip when changing the O Ring Kit :

• Usually, only the black O-rings need replacing unless one of the white O-rings is damaged.
• Some white O-rings have an intentional split for use in spouts with a grub screw, so a split does not indicate it is broken.
• Your new O-ring kit may include extra rings not needed for your spout, as some kits were later updated with a smaller ring for added stability.
• Use plumber's grease or washing-up liquid to aid movement, but avoid vaseline as it can damage the rubber.
