Copper shaft with rubber ring for various VSH outdoor taps.
Length of copper shaft: 420mm (42cm).
This copper shaft can be cut to size. The right length depends on the thickness of the wall your spindle or shaft is installed in, so make sure to measure this carefully before cutting.
After installation, grease the rubber ring with tap grease, so the rubber stays flexible for longer and doesn't dry out or crack.
At the end of the spindle/shaft sits rubber VSX15553. Sometimes you only need to replace this rubber part instead of the whole spindle, so check first whether that's enough for your tap before ordering the complete spindle.
Yes, the copper shaft of this spindle is 42cm long by default, but you can easily cut it to size. The right length depends on the thickness of the wall your spindle or shaft is installed in, so always measure this before cutting.
This spindle with valve is suitable for the VSH outdoor tap models GK116, GK110, GK111, GK150 and GK115. Always check the type number of your own tap before ordering, so you can be sure this part fits.

Not always. At the end of the spindle or shaft sits a rubber ring, VSX15553, which is often the cause of a leaking tap. Sometimes it's enough to replace just this rubber part instead of ordering the complete spindle with valve.
The spindle with valve consists of a copper shaft with a rubber ring. Copper is durable and moisture-resistant, which means this part lasts a long time in an outdoor tap exposed to plenty of weather conditions.
