Good Afternoon,
I'm after a little help. I installed a new radiator; one of these designer stainless steel ones. The 15mm tapping comes out of the bottom of the rad; so I purchased two chrome 15mm male to female so I could mount the trv.
The problem is the fittings on the 15mm males side have a o-ring to seal. I PTFE taped the thread about 10 wraps. When I tighten in its not at the 90 degree angle to my valve. What is the best way to acheive a good seal but make sure its tight enough that it doesn't move when knocked?
Cheers
Ant
