Ceramic Cartridge for Single-Handle Faucet Perfexim 40mm low profile (35-302-0002-400)

Replacement ceramic cartridge designed for single-handle faucets by Perfexim with a low profile and 40 mm diameter. The cartridge provides a ceramic disc mechanism for reliable control of water flow and temperature and is intended for repair or upgrade of compatible mixer taps. Its compact low-profile shape suits faucets with limited installation depth and supports routine maintenance and service kit use.

Advantages

The ceramic disc design reduces dripping and improves the smoothness of handle movement compared with conventional rubber-based cartridges. A 40 mm diameter ensures compatibility with many standard single-handle mixers while the low-profile body allows installation in faucets with shallow spindles. The cartridge is made to provide wear-resistant sealing surfaces for longer operational life and consistent performance in temperature and flow regulation.

Suitable for

• Repairing single-handle mixer faucets that use a 40 mm ceramic cartridge
• Upgrading older faucet cartridges to a ceramic disc mechanism
• Maintenance and service kits for sinks, basins, and kitchen taps
• Plumbing repairs where a low-profile cartridge is required due to limited internal space

Key specifications

How to use

Shut off the water supply and remove the faucet handle and any trim components to access the existing cartridge. Extract the old cartridge according to the faucet manufacturer’s instructions, then position the new 40 mm ceramic cartridge in the body ensuring correct alignment of the notches or splines. Reassemble the handle and trim, restore the water supply, and test for correct operation and leaks. If resistance or leakage is observed, recheck alignment and seating of the cartridge and tighten retaining components to the specified torque.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable tools to avoid damaging the cartridge body or faucet fittings. When replacing the cartridge, inspect seals and O-rings and replace them if worn. If unsure about compatibility, compare the old cartridge dimensions and spline pattern with this 40 mm low-profile ceramic cartridge or consult a qualified plumber for installation assistance.
