Mixer parts that cannot be found on sale in the event of a breakdown. Found you a solution

These breakdowns are rare, but they are also unpleasant, since I cannot find spare parts for them, for the entire time of my practice, I have not found.

Flowing from under the gander's shirt

Such a malfunction manifests itself when one lever mixer for sinks and sinks is turned on, water begins to ooze from under the shirt. This is due to the loss of the tightness of the rubber cuffs of the seals, which with a 90% probability you will not find on sale. Some wrote in the comments what they found, the lucky ones.

The solution to this problem, my friend Dmitry suggested to me in due time. It is enough to disassemble the mixer and wind the fumlent into the seats of the seals, this increases the diameter and tightness to the edges, the problem of leakage disappears.

The nipple on the bathroom faucet burst

I have met such a detail on bathroom faucets, and when it bursts on a normal faucet, you will not find it on sale. At one time I got out of the situation using a nipple from old devices, but when they ran out, I found another solution.

To do this, I took an ordinary transition nipple with an external thread 1/2 x 3/4 and wound flax 1/2 impregnated it with superglue (preferably, which does not immediately freeze), and screwed it into the case without bias device. The divertor was already screwed on 3/4 of the thread. I will leave links to the video in the comments.
