Hi Dave, I used to use those taps, but went tubeless with the Ex-ceed system, blue pole hose and univalve and I think it's the best set up I've tried. You should give it a go and see what you think!!

Try em on a belt instead of dragging them along the floor

Can you put one of the black handles on the one without?
I see one has the red insert and the "springy bit" has gone - impossible to get back in I've tried.
Use the John Guest 8mm x 6 mm barb and attach the pole hose to that.
With those fitted (they are harder plastic) and tend not to  pull the red insert and "springy bit" out as much as the pole hose does, the hose is softer and the teeth dig in a lot more.

It's normally a small bolt/screw that holds the tap handles on that can work loose which tends to fall out and gets lost. Just take them out, apply locktight on the threads and put the screw back in so less chance of working loose again. If they are the same type the tap handles can indeed be swapped over easily.

The best thing to do smurf, is send me an email
if there is a fault, i will replace it.
To be fair, they will not jam, if it did, it would be a fault on assembly.
