I'm fitting a mixer tap to an enamel bath, got everything disconnected then noticed that the pillars for the new mixer barely cover the holes in the enamel bath.
The old taps had 50mm shoulders, the new pillars are just 40mm and the holes in the enamel bath are 38mm which is a little close for comfort!
Taps are standard 3/4" fittings and the back nuts/top hats are fine, it's the top side I'm worried about.
Any suggestions that doesn't involve buying a new mixer as I bought it as a set and have already replaced the sink taps!
