Whilst replacing my bath taps, I removed the old taps to find that the fibre washers between the tap thread and water feed pipe had completely rotted. I didnt have any new fibre washers of the correct size so I borrowed the rubber ones from my washing machine pipes as a temporary measure (B&Q not open at 19.00 on Sundays).
My question is why are rubber washers not usually used in this situation?
Should I leave them in or get some fibre ones tomorrow when the shops open!
Thanks in advance
Steve
