⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Weeping at the banjo joint, usually showing on the underside
• Sealing washers found flattened, hardened or reused
• Union found loose or the sealing faces scored
• Line under strain because the banjo has been clocked wrongly

• Renew both sealing washers every time the banjo is disturbed, as reused washers are the usual cause of a weeping union
