The Bowden mixer takes the same J-shaped spout and dual-lever styling as the bridge tap in the range, but mounts through a single hole — so you get the traditional look without needing a two-hole sink or worktop. The polished nickel finish gives a warm, slightly softer reflection than chrome, which is what makes it work as well in a classic kitchen as in a smarter contemporary one.
Separate hot and cold levers turn through a quarter turn on ceramic disc cartridges, and the spout swivels across the bowl. It reaches 215mm out and stands 305mm tall, so there is room underneath for a stockpot or a roasting tin. It is rated from 0.4 bar, which makes it suitable for gravity-fed as well as mains-pressure systems.
Please note: this listing is for the mixer tap only. The matching Bowden handspray is a separate product and is not included.
Howdens supply the trade only — you cannot buy this tap direct from them without a trade account. We hold one, so you can order it here at a fair retail price with no account and no minimum order.
