    Hi all

    I have a shower that needs a replacement mixer handle/cover. Essentially there is a fixed brass attachment that needs to be covered as when exposed it is difficult to turn and piping hot. The original cover has broken and cannot be repaired.

    Does anyone know where I can get one of these? The bit that turns in the middle is 1/4 of an inch in diameter.

    Please see attached picture. I can supply any other details if you need.

    Any and all help is really, really appreciated!

    Thanks,
    CJ

    Should be possible to get a new cover or tap type fitting at a plumbing merchants or from the manufacturer.

    As a temporary meassure, use a small vice grip, locked on to the bar, to act as a level dial!:)
