Re: Sink tap losses

Hi @Mokumajie,

 

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for your question.

 

Is the issue that the tap handle won't screw back in?

 

If you shine a light down into the hole, can you see a thread at all?

 

If so, then you may need to rotate the tap body, so the outside hole that the handle goes into lines up with the internal thread. 

 

If this is not the issue, perhaps you are looking for a tool to help tighten the handle. If so, then you can use some multigrips with a cloth to cover the tap handle to protect it from scratches.

 

If the issue is something else, please let me know so I can assist further.

 

Jacob
