Gardiner quick loc brush sockets

Why is it that they become almost impossible to change brushes over.. "New" they work smooth but 1 month later there very stiff to take apart..  ???

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

It could be that the plastic has swelled slightly with the warmer weather - nylon does vary with ambient conditions.

A little lubrication may well be all that is needed.

Of course if it is a problem and even lubricating this does not make it run smoothly then please contact the office (01726 66400) with your order number and we can rectify this for you.

If the ball joint sticks making it hard to dissemble after some use, .......what's the chances of the ball socket springing out of the housing like some Schrader pole connections do after much use when they fall to pieces? Was interested in the quick loc style but the comments on here have put me off now.
