Solutions that Work
For Top Tips on how to use Compression Fittings, read our Buyers Guide.
To install a replacement ‘O’-ring, simply unscrew the nut and pull the pipe from the main body of the fitting. Then, remove the thrust ring holding the current ‘O’-ring in position. Place the new ‘O’-ring into the fitting body making sure it is free from any twists and re-place the thrust ring back inside the body of the fitting. The pipe can then continue to be installed as normal.
Before inserting the ‘O’-ring into the compression fitting body, apply some silicone grease to the fitting before pipe installation. This allows the pipe to slide past the ‘O’-ring without causing any gouges from jagged pipe edges. Top Tip: Blunt the end of the pipe before installing it into a fitting using a pipe chamfering tool to reduce the risk of damaging the ‘O’-ring. Â
