If you just need a slight bit of movement you can also get a coupling with no inner whatsit (rim?) so it can slide around on pipes. NT I'll look out for those kind of features, they seem just right for this job. The couplings with "no inner whatsit" are generally called 'slip' couplings. Can that feature be included in a lever valve, or is it an extra? there is some slip possible when using stock compression fittings -- Climate Change: Socialism wearing a lab coat. |
