Hi,
I have 1/2 BSP brass wall plate connector secured to brick wall 150mm apart to which I am connecting
Z connectors supplied with my Mira Shower valve.
I have done a trial run connecting the Z connectors and shower valve. The shower seals nicely on the 3/4 inch part of the Z connectors (no surprise there as there is a rubber washer inside) but water pours out of where the Z connector screws into the 1/2 inch wall plate elbow, which I feared may happen as there is no washer and the Z connector doesn’t fully screw in as this is where any fine adjustment is made.
I’ve tried PTFE tape and sealant on the 1/2” thread of the Z connector before screwing it into the brass wall plate but it still leaks. Any ideas please.
Many Thanks
Ken
I have attached a pic of both parts
