Default Dodgy gas joint


wrote in message
...
Pulling my cooker out to clean I discovered one of the pipe joints
moves easily and needs attention.

The supply comes out of the wall as a half inch iron pipe and there is
a half inch iron elbow that turns through 90 degrees. It is this
fitting that is loose and can be turned by hand.

So the elbow needs to be removed and reinstalled in the wall socket.

Gas grade ptfe?

or Gas grade ptfe and thread sealent?


PTFE or thread sealant.

Not both.
