Hi, I’m attempting to replace my kitchen tap and the new one I’ve purchased is supplied with flexi tails whilst the one currently fitted has copper push fit fittings. Would I be best to buy a couple of fitting like my last picture to change this tap or would it be possible I could re use the copper tails from my tap I’m replacing?
Thanks

What you are thinking of getting won’t fit your hose. Use these instead.

Much better to re-use the copper tails if they fit the new tap, but they're not all the same thread so need to check. They will last longer than flexis, and if the sink isn't very rigid give some extra stiffness
