I need to secure two 15mm pipes in wall for a Triton Shower Bar Mixer, they need to be solid as they support the Mixer once installed. Any good ideas???
The last one were held in place with mortar. Thanks.
 
some of the guys on here instructed me to use a back plate elbow.
 
Or if the pipes are not secured, am i right in thinking them fixing kits take the weight?
 
chase out, run pips in, saddle clip pipes,wrap the pipes in insulation tape, I use browning to fill in the chases and pipes, tile over/plaster board over etc, get a shower fixing kit tool station do them then put you mixer on.

Should be sorted

1/2 brass wall plate is perfect for them just make sure you cove up the areas exposed to cement or bonding
