Reviewers are saying to buy a metal fastener to stop leaks. What kind of fastener is this? I don't know what to look for in the store.

Save the extra cost for this bad design. The older designs were GOOD, this new design has problems with pressure, water is murky, plus the on/off switch will freeze up on you...good luck...After 6-7 years of using the old design, I've switched to Culligan filtration , excellet choice...

Yes, use the one that came with it. A little Teflon tape & don't over tighten the fitting. Treat a tool properly & you will get many use's from it. This is Not a heavy duty or commercial unit. Treat it as such & you will get many years from it. IMO.

Buy some new Dramm rubber gasket washers for the female end. This solved my leaking problem.

Twist on. You need to line up the threads carefully, though. If you rush and force it, it will leak.

I had to spend more money on more tubing. The inner circumference of the tubing is bigger so it leaks so had to go to hardware store and get more. I hope this helps

Hi Shawn. We had the same problem.we started the installation at three o'clock so that it will end up closer and then back to it off and install the clamp. We had no leak.

No quite sure. One of mine began to leak so I bought another at Walmart for pretty cheap. Maybe check e-bay if not.

Make sure you have all the air out of it when you screw the top on. I find that helps keep it from leaking.

There's a square rubber peice in the top of the mag, push it down as much you can. And just play w it a little. It stopped mine from leaking, and works good now!

I'm pretty sure that's what I did. Worst case you need to by a fitting that all hardware store carries that only cost few dollars. Just to let you know we have been using it everything day since we got it and it ls the best gun we have. I have much more expensive guns but my workers fights over this one.

If your leak is in the copper heating core, then I don't think this would the right product for that. This is for fixing plastic. See their website or call the manufacturer to be sure.

Hi! I'm not sure what you mean by "fit". It goes at the top so it doesn't really need to fit anything. Or are you referring to the faucet connection? I'm not sure if that's a standard size, but I can tell you it went directly onto mine without any issue at all. We did use some teflon tape to keep it from leaking, and we haven't seen a drop. If I can answer anything else for you, I'll gladly do so.

This flange worked perfect to replace the metal cylinder in my 1937 standard master one piece low boy toilet. However, the metal flange left 3 holes like you mention and this new one does NOT cover them. So I ALSO needed three rubber grommets to fill these holes. They american standard part number 0726-2700 Amazon does not carry these. I found them on guillens.com but they were back ordered. So I went to my local hardware store and bought three rubber corks 1/2 inch size They cost about 22 cents each :)

I bought one for the same use. Sometimes it leaks - not a lot, just enough to be irritating - sometimes it doesn't. I try to really tighten it down hard and that seems to stop any leaks. Just don't think I should have to work that hard! But the size and price point are both ideal!

It has standard threaded fittings to attach to the kind of flexible hoses that you can buy at any plumbing supply store, hardware store, or home improvement store. You will need to measure the distance from the faucet fittings to your shut-off valves to determine which length hoses to buy. And believe me, you should buy new hoses instead of using old ones, unless you want to have about a 70% chance of a leak; once a supply hose is used for some time, the sealing surfaces get slight deformities on it, and trying to get a good seal to a new mating surface is usually a lost cause.

Make sure the threads are not rusted...this could lead to a dangerous leak!
