Hello. I'm replacing my faucet due to a random freeze cracking the connection from the hot water supply to the faucet threads. So I cut the line, and added a PexLock swivel elbow. Thread it (blindly of course) onto the faucet, turn on the water, and major leaking. Un-thread the swivel elbow screw a plug onto it, turn the water on, and no leaks at all.

Seems like PexLock Swivel Elbow wont' work for the plastic male threads of the faucet?

Can anyone tell me the correct hardware connection to attach the water supply to the faucet threads?

Thank you!!!
