Main Features and Benefits

¼ Turn Ceramic Disc Technology

These taps are equipped with precision-engineered ¼ turn ceramic disc valves that allow for swift and smooth operation. Compared to traditional washer-based taps, ceramic discs offer superior durability and are far less prone to leakage, reducing maintenance needs.

Solid Brass Construction

The body of each tap is made from robust, corrosion-resistant brass to ensure long-lasting reliability, even in areas with hard or aggressive water. Brass also helps preserve water quality by resisting internal corrosion.

Whether your plumbing setup operates on high or low pressure, the SP Rhodes Lever Taps are designed to perform consistently, making them a versatile choice for most UK domestic water systems.

Efficient Flow Rate

Each tap delivers a controlled and efficient flow rate of 14 litres per minute at 1 bar, ensuring sufficient water delivery for everyday kitchen or utility sink tasks.
