How to change the ceramic valve in a kitchen faucet

There are usually signs indicating the temperature on the handle, blue and red, made of plastic, with a knife or screwdriver, knock the temperature indication plastic open, you can see that there is a positioning screw inside, use the hexagon to remove the positioning screw, and then remove the handle, use a wrench, after unscrewing the locking joint, you can see the ceramic valve core, replace it with a new one, during the replacement process, pay attention to the positioning of the sealing ring, otherwise it will leak.

Turn off the water, then use a screwdriver, twist the screw, and use a wrench to twist the valve and change it.

The ceramic valve uses high-performance structural ceramics, which has good self-cleaning, super wear-resistant, strong corrosion, strong self-lubrication, long service life, and a wide range of use environments, especially suitable for use in the chemical industry.

The deformation of ceramic materials is very small, and the metal has much higher mechanical strength than liters, and the crystal ion radius of the ceramic materials is generally small, and the ion valence is high, and the coordination number is large, which determines the tensile strength, compressive strength, elastic modulus, hardness, etc. of ceramic materials are very high. In recent years, due to the development and progress of martensitic phase transformation toughening technology, composite material technology and the concept of nano ceramics, the "brittleness" of ceramics has been greatly improved, its toughness and strength have been greatly improved, and the application range has been expanded. In recent years, the application of new ceramic materials in the fields of petroleum, chemical industry, machinery and other fields is very active, and the use of ceramic wear resistance and corrosion resistance to make wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant parts instead of metal materials is one of the important development directions of the high-tech materials market in recent years.

The ceramic valve plate in the faucet is replaced quickly, remove the faucet wrench (there is a certain screw in the center to be loosened), twist the copper core of the empty rubber faucet, take out the ceramic car valve plate, and align the new ceramic valve plate with the copper core bucket, and reinstall it.

There is usually a sign indicating the temperature on the handle, blue and red, the bridge is made of talking plastic, use a knife or screwdriver, knock the temperature indication plastic open, you can see that there is a positioning screw inside, use the hexagonal hexagons containing the back cover to remove the positioning screw, and then remove the handle, use a wrench, after unscrewing the locking joint, you can see the ceramic valve core, replace it with a new one, during the replacement process, pay attention to the positioning of the sealing ring, otherwise it will leak.
