Hi all. I'm fitting a towel rail in my bathroom and thought it would be a good idea to put an electric element in for warm towels when the heating isn't running.
The "T" piece which allows the combined water/element entry is a real buger to seal up :smartass2:. If I screw in the piece tght to compress the o ring the mid point of the "T" is no where near the pipework. So I assume I have to abandon the o ring and use PTFE or similar. Ptfe won't do it. I've got some Locktite thread seal but that's strugling too. There are only so many turns of tape I can put on or it won't phyisaclly fit in the thread.
Is jointing compound worth a go?
Cheers for any help
