Promix
Headworks with Ceramic Disks
For decades, research and development have been a top priority at Flühs Drehtechnik, and our efforts in these areas have resulted in trend-setting technical solutions in the faucet industry.
Promix headworks are an excellent example, because this patented product has become the world's market leader. The technical concept of the Promix headwork combines innovation and functionality. This is why Flühs Promix is the only ceramic headwork which does not require grease to lubricate the ceramic sealing disks. Almost all manufacturers of quality brand-name faucets use the internationally acclaimed and tried-and-tested Promix headworks. The turning ranges are 90° and 180°.
Flühs Promix headworks are manufactured in standard sizes 3/8", 1/2", 3/4" and 5/8", and other requested connection thread sizes. In recent years, several hundred different headwork models have been developed and manufactured, giving the designers and technicians in the faucet industry even more design opportunities.
How the Promix functions
Turning the spindle moves the upper ceramic control disk in such a way that the openings of the inlet disk are blocked or are released to allow water to flow.
The turning angle of the spindle is limited to a 1/4 or 1/2 turn by an internal metal stop. Even after many years of use, the stability of this stop prevents the wear and tear which otherwise occurs.
Connection to the faucet seat takes place via a lip-seal which also plays its part in the sealing function when the Promix is closed.
