TAP3433 Lynstone Professional Brushed Nickel Swan Neck Pull Out Kitchen Tap
A pull-out tap for the price of an ordinary mixer. The Lynstone Professional keeps the rigid swan neck of the standard Lynstone but adds a nozzle that withdraws on an internal hose, so you can direct the water into the corners of a bowl, rinse a colander held over the sink, or fill a bucket standing on the floor beside the unit. At 496mm tall it is a properly commanding tap, and the brushed nickel finish hides fingerprints and water spotting in a way polished chrome does not.
Two things to check before you order. First, this tap needs mains or pumped pressure: it is rated 0.5-5 bar and Howdens class it as suitable for medium to high pressure systems only. If you are on a gravity-fed tank, choose the standard Lynstone mixer (TAP3431) instead, which works from 0.3 bar. Second, the maximum sink and worktop thickness is 39mm — noticeably less than the 55mm allowed on the standard Lynstone — so measure your sink deck or worktop before ordering. A thick composite sink may be too deep for it.
The rest of the practical detail. One tap hole with a 48mm footprint, surface mounted, flexi tails on a ½" BSP female thread, and all fixings and the instruction manual are supplied. The valve is a ceramic disc cartridge. Note that the aerator on the pull-out models is built in rather than replaceable, unlike the standard Lynstone mixers — worth knowing if you are in a hard-water area. Howdens do not publish a hose length for this tap and we would rather not quote a figure we cannot stand behind; ask us and we will get it confirmed.
Why you cannot buy this from Howdens yourself. Howdens supply the trade only — no trade account, no purchase, and no published prices. We hold a trade account, so we can supply the same Howdens-sourced tap direct to you at a normal retail price, with no account and no minimum order.
