        The plastic 'rose head' disc on our kitchen mixer tap has come off. Any one suggest a suitable glue to reattach it?

          Materials to be glued?

          Photos of each part?

          Can likely help but need more info.

              Thought they were normally screwed on, check inside the spout.

                The tap spout end consists of the plastic rose with a smaller diameter flexible tube which is a posh fit into the rear of the rose.img_1425.jpg

                  Where's it broken? Can't see a break. Can we see the broken pieces apart (or the other part to be glued)?

                  Not enough info so far to be able to offer any suggestions. Don't know what you mean by a posh fit, and only guessing what you mean by a "rose", that is, maybe it's the bigger diameter end of the part with multiple passages as shown in your photo.

                  Maybe your terminology is 100% clear locally where you live, but it isn't clear to me. I've been designing valves and plumbing components at different times for several different fluid handling firms in North America for many years, so I can probably help, but need clear info to do so.

                    They are usually a push fit, but sometimes screw in. I have seen push in ones pop out before.

                    Do you know the manufacturer?

                    P.S. the part is a 'tap aerator'
