Lamona Garda Tap3562 Valve
4276R Valve Dimensions:
- Nut Height: 8mm
- Splines: 28
- Overall height: 53mm
- Diameter at thread: 21mm
Due to modifications in this Tap by the manufacturer over the years, we supply the original white sealed version of this valve (larger seal underneath). We use code 4276R to distinguish from later valve used in the Tap which has a coloured flatter seal. This is a genuine Spare Part. Parts are labelled Hot & Cold. If opened and you cannot tell apart, as both Hot & Cold Valves have white seals underneath: the Hot valve opens Clockwise and has nicks on the side of the nut. The Cold Valve opens Anticlockwise and has no nicks.
Useful Tip about the Bush
If you remove your Valve and it looks different than the valve in the picture, it is most likely because the brass bush is still attached. You will have to separate them OR buy a Brass Bush as well. For tips on how to separate a Valve from a Brass Bush, see here.

- My Valve has a different coloured seal than the one you have sent me? Due to modifications over the many years that this Tap has been in production, we supply the universal Garda Valve that covers all these changes. This is based on the manufacturer’s recommendations.
- My valve looks wider and completely different from the pictures here / the one I ordered ? Is the Bush stuck to your own Valve ? That is the round extra piece of Brass that surrounds the valve. Sometimes they can get stuck together and come out as one piece. See the images below. You can order the Bush part separately if needed. It is one Bush per Valve.

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.
