Review on 🚽 Fluidmaster B1T09CS CLICK SEAL Toilet Connector: Durable Stainless Steel Braided Hose - 3/8 Female Compression Thread x 7/8 Female Ballcock Thread, 9-Inch Length by Bobby Lawson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No gimmicks, professional look, fair price. (Get the right size though. It may not be as obvious as you think.)

"Click-Seal" sounds like a trick, but it is pretty helpful. A common problem with a simple installation is the temptation to over-tighten this nut. The seal is relatively soft and seals well without much pressure. Over-tightening, at least over time, will cause the gasket to sink into the pipe and expand at the edges, creating a leak. Click-Seal eliminates guesswork. It's like the gas cap on your car. All in all, this feedline is well made and free from flaws. I would like to give a little advice on choosing the right length. The minimum distance I had to cover was about 8 inches. Available options are 6", 9" and 12". I thought the shortest line that would cover the distance would be the best. I found that this is not necessarily true. When we talk about such short distances, placing a 9 inch cord in an 8 inch space is not enough to allow for a loop, although the cord is clearly flexible, instead it should have a 1 inch buckle down the middle of the line. .This puts undue pressure on the splices, while a 12" wide eye line eliminates this. Since I ended up only having one line I took advantage of it. It worked well and I have strong pipe joints so pressure is not an issue to me is. Looks professional and very clean. However, if you have some fragile PVC pipes then this print is not necessary and therefore it is recommended to go for a longer length. The prices for this lead are fair. I have found that the price s at Revain Prime is lower than what I would pay at Walmart for the exact same product. (I saw this at Walmart AFTER I placed my Revain order).
