Hello all Current screws have rusted so bad that the heads have fallen off. I'm looking to replace but want to get the suitable screws. Do they need plugging into the floor as i have floor tiles. Sorry if i sound like a complete idiot as i'm a novice DIYER. I was thinking these...

As well as above ^^^^ Can anyone direct me to some good reading material on this as when i google the subject, i get bombared with manifold sale items and information on underfloor heating. Jibbs

No the flexi part of the it im going to bury. Is that right...

Okay nice one guys :wink:

Thank you very much for your advice Springbok :D

Okay it's just the flexi pan connector looks a little thin and i don't want it to break.

Okay so your saying that the spigot/15bar part is just like doing a compression fit on 15mm copper pipe with a nut and olive?
