Kitchen Tap Handle 3257R is available in Chrome & Brushed Nickel (SS) finish.
- The diameter of the wide part of the handle that meets the body of the tap is 34mm wide.
- The height of the handle (top to bottom, handle part only) is 97.5mm tall.
- This Handle comes with Grub screw .677 (located underneath the handle) that requires a 2mm allen key to remove it.
This handle has changed from fitting a 20 spline valve to a current 28 spline valve. Please check the Valve in your own Tap.
- The current version of this Handle 3257R fits over a 28 spline valve. Earlier versions of this Handle fitted over a 20 spline valve. In other words, even though the manufacturer of the Taps that used this Handle changed the valve and the internal splines in the Handle, they kept the same Handle code.
- You can refer back to your own installation guide that came with your own Tap if you still have it. If you have this guide and it specifies 3547R Valve, then this Handle available here will fit over your own Valve. However, if your own Installation guide specifies the Valve 1212R, which has 20 splines, then this Handle here won’t fit over your own Valve.
- If you don’t have the installation guide, remove your tap handle using a 2mm Allen key and check the valve splines—either 20 or 28. Compare yours to the pictures below or in the gallery. If unsure, send us photos of your exposed valve and full tap to info@hwl.ie or use the contact button below—we’ll be happy to help.
- If you have the earlier 20 spline valve, then the current handle available will not fit your own valve. You will need to order a replacement 3547R (28 spline) valve to match the current Handle.
