Description

Bristan Artisan AR SNKPURE C Filter Tap Valve and Cartridge

As this is a two-lever filter tap, your hot water feed will use a standard hot valve—either the 4276R or 3547R. You may also need the bushing part 3868R, a wide brass ring that sometimes remains attached to the old hot valve during removal.

On the cold side, there is a diverter cartridge that manages both the mains cold and filtered cold water feeds. Originally, this diverter was a red plastic cartridge encased in brass, but it has since been updated to the fully brass 3466R diverter cartridge.

• Nut Height: 8mm, Splines: 28, Overall height: 53mm, Diameter at thread: 21mm

We supply the original, genuine two-threaded universal valve with a white seal (4276R). While some later tap models use the single-threaded version (3547R), the earlier two-threaded 4276R with the white seal is generally more effective as a replacement valve for your tap.

Bush with recess 3686R for the Hot Valve

Sometimes, when you remove your own Hot valve, the bush is stuck to the valve. If this happens and you cannot separate, then order the bush

For the Cold Side / Filtered Cold Side: You have two options: the pre-2009 red plastic diverter cartridge (please note the versions we do not stock, listed below), or the post-2009 brass diverter cartridge, part number 3466R. We strongly recommend removing your existing diverter to confirm the correct replacement before placing your order.
