3/4" Shower Mixer inlet

[heirpin]

Hi, I've just been trying to get my bar shower mixer to stop leaking and when I replaced it on the 3/4" inlet stubs, one of the fibre washers failed and I had a leak!
I had a root about in the garage and found an o-ring the same size and it seems to have done the job. My question is, can I leave it as is or should I really get a new fibre washer and re-do it?

useally 2 rubber washers not fibre.

Ah thanks for the reply but that looks like one of the washers in the flexible hose that goes to the shower head, I'm talking about the 3/4" BSP connection to the hot and cold supply
they look like this
