What happens here

The new chrome bathtub faucet spout, which has internal threads, is carefully threaded onto the prepared pipe. The person first hand-tightens it to ensure it's straight and not cross-threaded. Once hand-tight, adjustable pliers are used to gently tighten the spout further until it is snug and properly aligned horizontally. The spout's pull-up diverter is visible on top.

Goal: Securely attach the new bathtub faucet spout to the wall pipe

Tools and materials

  • Adjustable Pliers — Gently snugging the new spout for a secure fit
  • New Bathtub Faucet Spout — The replacement part for water delivery into the tub and to the shower

What they say

Hide

some Teflon on this and pipe dope. Get this on. I wish that it was brass. All right, go about five, six wraps on this, all right? I just want it to work. I'm going to go light Megaloc on this as well. It's tight. Okay. Little hot, little cold, little shower. Works like it's supposed to.
