I have 2 female threaded fittings on my shower thermostat which due to the layout, I want to exit at right angles using a 22mm compression to threaded elbow. Unfortunately the elbows don't quite tighten at the correct angle (ie perpendicular to the wall).
Is it OK practice to adjust this angle using PTFE tape. I can do this without too many turns of the stuff but as access is not going to be great when the job is completed I want to check whether this is the best method.
