Plumbing assembly
A tubular member comprising a free end for receiving within a socket of a plumbing fitting and comprising a formation 22 at the free end for driving against a formation of the socket to provide tactile or audible feedback, the tubular member formation being axially re-entrant and comprising a plurality of peaks 26 and troughs 28 encircled by a boundary wall 24. The tubular member is received in a plumbing fitting comprising a body comprising a socket for receiving the free end, the socket having a base with a socket formation comprising a plurality of axial projections 34 and a conical face 32, which is driven against by the tubular member formation to produce tactile or audible feedback when the free end is in a desired location in the socket in use, where the socket formation is encircled by a portion of the base which receives the boundary wall. The axial projections may be integrally formed in the base or be separate elements located in the socket.
