Franke Cresta Tap Parts

As there are a lot of O Rings in this Tap it might be useful to take a picture of your spout before you remove the existing ones so that you can replicate.

DIY Guide

You will need a 3mm size allen key to remove the grub screw in your spout.

As per diagram above (parts listed as ‘3’), the order of the rings are from top down :

1. Large white
2. First black of same size.
3. 2nd black ring of same size
4. Castellated white (turrets facing downwards)
5. Larger black

Use plumbers grease / silicone grease . Do not use vaseline.

O Rings
If your Tap is leaking at the joint of the body of the tap and the spout then you might need to replace your O-rings. See our Guide here.

• 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.

This is a Genuine Spare Part from the original Tap Manufacturer of your Tap.

• Genuine = Proper fit, tested by the Manufacturer
• Compatible = Not made by your Tap’s brand. May not fit or last.

We’ve seen compatible parts cause leaks or damage. Choosing genuine parts protects your tap and warranty.

If your  Franke Cresta Tap is dripping from the Spout then you might need to replace the Franke Cresta Kitchen Tap Valves.
