Help needed to find an 'adjustable' - traditional - wall mounted bath/mixer tap...

[gregzapper]

I've been a plumber for a while now but never came across some traditional wall mounted bath / mixer tap with 3/4 inch thread coming out of the wall and being 160mm centre to centre between pipes!

Now I can get a wall mounted tap 150mm apart but cannot find an adjustable one anywhere....:sad:


Anyone got any suggestions please..

See tag for style I'm after but 160mm not 150mm

Thanks in advance

Sorry mate but I cant help, I just think you will bewasting your time to look for it

Never heard, seen, or even needed one like that before?

Do they need the shower ? if not could use globe taps

Can you no move pipe work?

Was going to reccomend this or 3 hole taps but would need access to other side

Seems as if I need a male 3/4 inch to female 3/4 inch off-set connector????

I don't think they exist though..

I've got two male 3/4 inch bsp threaded pipe coming out of the wall. These kits are designed to use female 1/2 inch backplates with off-set 1/2 inch to 3/4..

Am I right? I'm not 100% sure....

Thanks for the globe taps advise, I take it they will just screw straight on?

With these wall mounted thing, never can tell until you bought them to be honest, I have had showers that have been completely different, even though they looked exactly the same, I find brita showers have the male connections and cheap showers have the female connection but this doesnt help your situation
