A faucet is something that neither a kitchen nor a bathroom can do without. Therefore, the choice of crane should be approached with particular responsibility. As for the optimal price-performance ratio, sellers often recommend G-Lauf taps to customers. We will talk about what technologies are used in their production, what are their advantages and features, in our article.
G-Lauf Mixer Manufacturer Information
The products of this company can be found in fast food restaurants and shopping centers, sports clubs and apartments. The manufacturer of inexpensive faucets for the bathroom, kitchen and shower has been operating in the Russian Federation since 2003. Initially, the brand was focused on creating cheap, but high-quality sanitary ware for the CIS countries, where such products could have increased demand from buyers. The company adheres to the same strategy today.
Faucets of the above trademark are produced by the Tuozhen factory located in the Taizhou region (China), which is known as a base for the production of cheap sanitary ware. New brand models are created thanks to designers who work in a special research center opened by the company in 2006. Product promotion is carried out in accordance with the prices of a particular region.
Modern technologies
The following unique technologies are used in the manufacture of G-Lauf mixers:
- A water distribution mechanism integrated in the housing ensures the movement of water in the desired direction (deviator). This allows you to get the same amenities as in taps with a thermostat, but at a more affordable price.
- Fastening the mixer to the nut. The special shape of the nut (in the form of a crown) makes it easy to install the mixer without using special tools. This makes it easy to replace the valve even for a woman.
- Ball Switching. In conditions of low quality tap water, this technology significantly extends the life of the mixer.
Features of kitchen faucets
According to their design, all cranes are usually divided into one-handed and two-handed. The former are considered more convenient in terms of use. They allow you to adjust both the temperature and the pressure of the water with one movement of the hand. This is especially convenient if one hand is busy.
G-Lauf two-handed kitchen faucets have a more familiar design. The water pressure and temperature in them are regulated with the help of two handles located on the left and on the right side. Such models look especially harmonious in the classic interior of the kitchen.
The most popular material for making faucets is brass. It is characterized by resistance to corrosion and various loads. In other models, silumin, an alloy of aluminum with silicon, can be used as a material. In the manufacture of parts that are subject to high loads, zinc alloys are used.
The range of kitchen faucets is diverse. This allows you to easily purchase a high-quality faucet at an affordable price and the style of the kitchen interior.
The range of faucets for the bathroom
Modern technologies and high-quality materials allow you to create reliable and popular faucets for any room. The G-Lauf bathtub faucet is made by injection molding, which guarantees a long service life of the products of the above brand. Applied injection molding technology allows you to create a high-strength material that is resistant to leaks and corrosion. Outside, the metal coating is galvanized.
Bathroom faucets are made from the same materials as kitchen faucets: brass, silumin, zinc alloys. Inside the water distribution mechanism there is a reinforced ceramic cartridge that provides the movement of the water flow in the right direction.
The range of faucets for the bathroom is quite wide. It presents one-handed and two-handed taps, including washbasin taps. Choosing the option that matches the interior of the bathroom will be very easy.
