Can you use olives in compression plumbing fittings?
Compression fitting olive to suit old 3/4 inch imperial copper pipe (popular in the UK before 1972). Can be used as a conversion olive inside a metric 22mm compression plumbing fitting to reduce it to accept the slightly smaller 3/4 inch sized imperial pipe.
When to use brass olives on copper pipe?
Brass olives on copper where there is likely to be strain or movement that could pull the pipe out of the fitting and flood the place. I rarely get leaks now from any compression fitting, I smear I bit of LSX inside the fitting and tighten untill it ‘feels’ right.

Which is better 1 / 2 or 15mm copper olives?
Where you are using 1/2 & 15mm select copper olives. They are softer and deform a lot easier. The 1/2″ to 15mm nearly works, 1/2″ pipe fits, thread on that end is slightly undersize compared with 1/2″ bsp and seems to be the right diameter for old 1/2″ compression coupler nuts but the pitch is different so wont fit.
