Zusammenfassung:A component, such as a cover or shroud 20, for a sanitary fitting (which may be a tap or spout outlet), that forms part of the outer surface of the fitting and is required to have a specific rotational alignment. It is comprised of a first part 26 which is threaded 30 and screws to the sanitary fitting and second part 24 which is secured to the first part so that it will not rotate. The two parts may then form a whole object or body. The method of securing the two parts may be by press fitted connectors on the two parts. One connecter may be a groove (36a figure 5) and the other a projection (36b figure 5) that fits into the groove. These may extend part or all the way around the two parts and the parts may interlock by teeth 38 a and b. The fitting may be square or rectangular and may be formed of metals and/or plastics. Methods of assembling and disassembling the component are also disclosed.
