Spindles
Some design changes have occurred over the decades and in some customer applications wall spindles have been used on basins to achieve more spindle height. If unsure please contact CB with a photograph and spindle dimensions for identification.
All Torrens spindles (Torrens Capstan, Torrens Lever and Torrens Flared Lever) are the same component and are Rapid Action®. Please use our Rapid Action Turning Directions diagram to specify turning direction when ordering. Torrens Capstan spindles if ordered without further instructions are supplied turning the same direction (just like normal jumper valve taps).
A full explanation of the advantages of our Rapid Action® mechanism can be found in the Rapid Action (1/4 Turn) FAQ.
You may not need to replace the whole spindle, hydroseals and o-ring packs are available below.
