Coupling Nut & Washer FAQ
My faucet connection is leaking — is it the nut or the washer?
Check the washer first — it's the cheaper, more common failure point, and washers degrade with repeated cleaning cycles faster than the nut itself. If a fresh washer doesn't stop the leak, then check the nut for cross-threading or damage.
Fiber or rubber washer — does it matter which I use?
Both are food-grade and seal effectively; the choice usually comes down to what your specific fitting was originally designed for. If you're replacing a worn washer, matching the original material is the safest bet.
