Basin Wrench?

[mike2016]

Hi,

Plumbing 101 question! I fitted a water filter under the kitchen sink which feeds a separate tap. The new tap is still a bit loose and can swivel easily. I need to tighten the nut under the sink but it's at the back left of the sink unit.

 

Simple question - what's the best tool to use? Should I buy a basin wrench or try with a pliers? 

 

Thanks!

I've found having a basin wrench makes life a lot easier for jobs like that.

This is the one ive got. Change the heads over for 1/2' or 3/4" tap connectors, but the head also move so it will do varying sizes too, like the back nuts. As you apply pressure it tightens its grip.

Thanks!

Got myself a basic draper one that should do the trick...
