Durability and Maintenance Benefits
The exceptional durability and low maintenance requirements of modern basin mixers stem from their advanced construction and materials. The primary body is typically crafted from high-grade brass, known for its excellent corrosion resistance and structural integrity. The ceramic disc cartridge technology eliminates the wear and tear associated with traditional rubber washers, significantly reducing the likelihood of drips or leaks. The surface treatments, whether chrome plating, PVD coating, or other finishes, provide robust protection against scratches, tarnishing, and daily wear. These mixers undergo rigorous testing to ensure they can withstand hundreds of thousands of operation cycles while maintaining consistent performance. The simplified internal mechanism, with fewer moving parts than traditional taps, minimizes potential failure points and extends the fixture's operational life.
