How to remove this bath spout?
Hi Bunnings Workshop Team,
I am looking at replacing this bath tub spout with a hand shower but it won't come off after multiple tries. Is this mounted differently that I am missing something?

Re: How to remove this bath spout?
Morning @badmojo
I have seen a rubber connection that fits over the end of bath spouts but not sure if they would handle the water from your tap 😕 with the water exiting from the spoute side. This is the style I wa sthinking of Handi Homes Push On Tap Shower
Getting threads to match up can be a problem, you could try a few bolt sizes by hand and see if they wind on but if the spout is from overseas the thread could be different or thread pitch even. No harm in gently trying the bolts tho.

Which one have you tried, @badmojo? I see the aerator thread is recessed within the spout, and that might be the issue.

Re: How to remove this bath spout?
Hi @badmojo I had a look online searched for a combination mixer and wall spout and found these that might help, the ones I looked at are a push fit, not threaded in place.
The third one below shows full installation. Goodluck.

I think it was a 20mm thread pipe nipple but it wouldn't fit as it was recessed.

Hi @Dave-1 , I tried a similar one but the challenge is it is on the side and the water would just leak out.
