Hello there!

Just a quick question. I’m trying to remove the shower arm in my tub. I’ve done a bit of plumbing work before with my dad. But, this one has me stumped.

The shower head came off perfectly fine. They had used Teflon tape on it. But, after trying to remove the shower arm, I got a flashlight and cleaned off the nut. It all looks pretty clean back there. I don’t see any mineralization or rust. It just won’t budge and I don’t want it to snap. But, the closer I looked at it. It looks like someone used pipe joint on it or something. Is that possible? I haven’t come across this before.

Thanks in advance for your help!
