Two quick question on compression fittings.
Firstly, I want to run a hot and cold water "main" across a room and put in appropriate tees to feed the various items that will eventually be fitted, the new toilet for example, however before I put the final supply pipes in for these I would like to finish off other jobs in the room, so would like to temporarily blank off their connection. Can I use these (it is 15mm pipe work): http://www.screwfix.com/prods/49888/...lank-Nut-2-Pk# These are thread sealing, but compression tees are usually olive sealing, does this matter or will they leak (obviously I will PTFE the threads)? Secondly, how do these work: http://www.screwfix.com/prods/95682/...tting-22-15mm# I can't understand what clamps the smaller pipe, as they aren't supplied with any olives. Thank you in advance for any help. |
