Bath cocks - use with rubber washer?

capefox · Feb 27, 2017

Tried these as-is on 3/4" mip fitting. Leaked. Tried it with teflon tape. Still leaked. Is there a rubber washer that needs to be used with it? What size or type?

no washer. It is a ground joint.

Why is it leaking. Faulty fitting?

Are you threading it into a female ground joint?

The main use for that fitting was for the connection to a leg tub faucet.

You previously started a thread on same subject.

How about a picture of what you are trying to connect to what.
