Hi,
I’m looking to swap out a wall mounted tap mixerblock (I have easy access to the crawl space behind bathroom) I have this unit (Pictured) which has two G1/2 female threads for the H + C feeds - these also have recessed rubber flanges. My question is what fitting should I use to connect to my 15mm water feeds? A standard 1/2 male connector doesn’t engage the rubber flange forming a good seal and I can’t seem to find the right type of connector anywhere.

Thanks for reading. :D
