Very simple thing but keeps catching me out.
I went to a job today and the washer had gone, leaving a dripping tap.
simples!
But when going to put the washer in, it didnt fit.
These are the head gear which has a sort of cup for the washer to go in and a screw to tighten up.
I managed to get it sorted but am now wondering why my "tap washers" don't fit.
is it...
1. because I got them from screw fix (although have bought from other places)
2. because they are made larger and you are suppose to trim them a little, if so how do you trim them to make them round rather then hexagonal
3. Because I am missing something else
