Morning all hope all is well.
I recently needed to fix our leaky main bathroom toilet. I thought as I am taking the cistern off the wall I'd replace all the parts so I wouldn't have to worry about it for a few years at least.

I installed a new flush valve and a new filler valve. Both work fine but the filler valve is a lot louder filling the tank than the previous one.

The water drops down from the blue filler on the top and I recall that on the previous filler valve there was a plastic sleeve that sort of muffled the fill. However this valve never came with one.

What are these sleeves called? Can I buy them separately of the valve? I cannot seem to find them anywhere.

Help would be appreciated.
 
Restrictor is what you need.
It's needed if the water supply at the WC is mains pressure.
There should have been one with the new fill valve.

There's sometimes 2 one with large gaps for low pressure and one with small gaps like below for high pressure Restrictor.PNG
