I have used two wall-plate elbows (as usually used for outside taps) in order to mount my mixer bar shower to the wall. Now, the 15mm compression joint is fine but the end where I screwed in the shower adaptors appears to be leaking.
I put two or three turns of PTFE tape around the thread of the shower adaptors before screwing them in, and made sure they were in there good and proper with a spanner. Should there be some kind of washer in there as well?
At the moment it is metal, wrapped in PTFE, screwed into metal. Nothing like an olive or a washer.
