The nut pulls it down onto the pipe and it deforms against both the pipe wall and the seat in the fitting, and that is what makes the joint tight without solder, tape or compound. In practice they are single use: once an olive has been compressed it has taken the shape of that particular joint, and a fresh one seals better than a reused one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOlives seal best fitted new.
