Does any one know where u can buy just the tap metal heads only, for our hose reel tap - the usual suppliers only sell the middle section and it doesnt take much to break them, it would be good to have spares. cheers m

do you mean the actual plastic tap handle ?
I had the same problem although I dont use them anymore.
But when I did, I went to a local plumbing supplies, they often have spares of the blue and red tap handles for the self tapping washing machines taps that you  bore onto your pipes under the sink.
They cost pennies my local shop even gave me a handful of them for free.

Why wfp supliers sell these plastic ones is beyond me, stupid idea
I much prefer using one of these now
