Soon I will be installing a Moen A725 series Drop Ell to go along with a moen handshower slidebar assembly.
My model has the threads inside the drop ell. Is there a preferred length of pipe to use for this item? I'm finding it a bit tricky to know how deep to mount the drop ear inside my wall, before I start closing in the wall to do tile work. I do have the Moen specs that showing that 3/8" of the pipe is to be extended beyond the finished wall. It doesn't seem like very much to grab on to and tighten the pipe and risk damaging the threads.
Also, what would be the preferred type of pipe to use for this installation? It will be attached to a 1/2" Brass drop ear.
Thanks for the help.
