Bath Drain Leakage: Water Running from Marked Area - Causes and Solutions (Image)

Best answers

How do I stop a small leak from the bathtub drain connection shown in the marked area?

The leak is most likely caused by a loose drain nut, a damaged or misplaced rubber gasket, or the wrong nut, so disassemble the joint, clean it, replace the gasket, and tighten the nut fully [#16531028][#16531040][#16531043] If needed, first check that the nut screws all the way on without the pipe, then reassemble with the gasket in place; the thread traces suggest the seal was installed but not properly clamped [#16531206] One reply also notes that a gray nut with a different thread pitch will not press the gasket correctly, so replace it with the matching nut from the set and fit a new seal [#16531690]

    Hello, I have a problem,
    Water flies from the place marked on the picture. This is not much, but the sumarum sums up the space under the bathtub. Can anyone do what?

    Loosen this nut, the one on the right, on the right. Undress, clean the whole, twist and act.

    There is a rubber seal there, more or less:

    Measure the outer diameter of the horizontal tube, go to the store with such things, buy a gasket with this diameter or similar tube, disconnect as a colleague advises above, clean, replace the gasket and ready.

    I am a bit surprised that so much of this thread remains. After all, this nut should be screwed almost to the very end, otherwise it will not press the gasket

    Yes, he agrees, he must have rummaged there and not turned it on.

    Maybe someone because of a difficult approach crooked the thread "caught" and when the next hand did not give advice to tighten it so left it?
    Buying new elements (cheap thing) and correct assembly will eliminate it.

    The thread has broken thanks to which it is screwed to the rest.

    There is no thread there. There is only a rubber gasket which is pressed by the nut.

    Maybe someone put a gasket wrong.

    After traces on the pipe, I see that the gasket was put on. It was not tightened with a nut, check the first without this pipe, whether the nut is screwed to the very end, and then fold with the pipe with the gasket.

    For me after each cleaning, change the gasket because it leaks

    The nut is gray with a different set and different thread pitch, you will not press the gasket.
    Change the nut to the one from the set, give a new seal and tighten it well. It will be cool.
