Hello Dinky dow: You said " They make a braded flexable supply line that might solve your problem. But I think they are pretty expensive ". Good idea. don't use any thing else anymore unless it is going to be exposed (as with a pedestal sink ). They cost a little more but I have yet to have to make a return call. Hope this helps. Come back often. ~ shao

dinky - its the platic insert that sits inside the nut and extends up into the flexitube material. It cracks above the nut and before the crimped metal band on the flextube. Weird, its not overtightening that does it.

The length is the usual 9 - 12 inches. 9 is to short, used the 12" and it has a little S bend in it as a result. But not huge pressure from the bend....I'll look at the metal weaved type tomorrow or just get some copper line and bend away with some ferrel connections (I believe).
