Not quite the same thing, but years ago when I fitted a shower, the destructions stated NOT to use any kind of sealant when assembling the water feed side. 'What do they know' I thought and used some Locktite (not a glue) PTFE based sealant around a plastic fitting.

Months later .................. as I traced the pool of water on the bathroom floor back to the shower/water heater (separate from the enclosure) it was the plastic bit that had become very brittle due to the sealant.

Brute force is the best lubricant
