At present, there are three main types of spools: ceramic spools, steel spools, and shaft-roller spools. The characteristics of these three kinds of valve cores are integrated, the whole valve shaft is integrated, and it is easy to install, repair and replace.

Ceramic valve core: Because the price is affordable, the water pollution is small, the wear resistance is good, the sealing performance is good, and at the same time, the improvement of “brittleness” makes the ceramic valve core widely used. In general, the ceramic valve core plays a very good sealing role. Due to relatively strong foreign technology, some imported ceramic chips have relatively better sealing performance, stable physical properties, wear resistance, and long service life. Most of the mainstream mixers produced by most well-known brand sanitary ware manufacturers on the market have adopted ceramic valve cores.

Shaft roller valve core: The advantages are smooth rotation of the handle, easy operation, easy and comfortable feel, resistance to aging and wear. However, the shaft-roller spool, as an old-fashioned spool, has gradually failed to meet the demand of the crowd for the spool, and will be gradually eliminated by the market. Roller spools are now rare in the big brands.
