Q: Do I need to overtighten the hose to stop leaks?
No, the silicone compresses under light force, so overtightening the connection isn't necessary to get a leak-resistant seal.
AB111 - Lee Valley Silicone Washers, pkg. of 6
If you’ve never had the pleasure of using a high-quality silicone washer, we invite you to try these.
While they are exceptionally flexible and durable – and won’t shrink or crack over time – their true advantage lies in sealing performance. The silicone compresses and subtly bulges under force, creating a tight, leak-resistant fit with minimal torque. You don’t need to overtighten fittings to achieve a reliable seal.
Sold in a package of six.
