Looking for a replacement fixed shower head...do I have a weird size?

[dazzystar]

Hi All,

Our fixed above bath fixed show head needs replacing. I took it off this evening and it appears to be a 22mm thread. All the websites I've been on seem to only sell them suitable for a 1/2 inch fitting. Am I going to need to replace the arm as well?

Cheers
Daz

If all else fails could you not use a reducing bush

reducing bush any good?

Thanks mate. I've ordered one as well as a new shower head. I hope my measurements were right! The female thread on my shower arm measured 3/4 inch.

think your measuring incorrectly ,it's highly likely to be 1/2 inch bsp .
