A 7" pair of Footprints grips are often capable of tightening the near impossible nuts
Talking of 'Footprints' I think they're an amazing tool - I still use a 7" pr that I was given when I finished C & G Plumbing (Craft level) at Herts College of Building in St Albans, that was 1983!!
Also got a 9" pr; simply excellent basic tool
Thx, it maybe that alright as the nut is quite tight but there is lots of movement in the taps. Excuse my ignorance but what dia of washer should i get 34mm?It's not that the thread doesn't quite go up far enough to allow it to clamp onto the thin steel sink is it? If so, solution is a thick washer ( a top-hat washer would be ideal).
Thanks Ric. I got 5 normal washers from local Hardware shop and fitted them. Tap nice and tight now.Anything with an internal diameter slightly greater than the diameter of the thread on that tap so it will fit over the thread. You'll need to measure it, I'm afraid.
