An adjustable fitting for a shower head has a support bracket (2) with a sliding fit on the support bar (1) and with an adjustable friction brake controlled by a screw adjuster (11). The bracket has a fitting which holds a pivot mounted support (4) into which the shower head is clipped. The support holds the shower head symmetrically for an improved appearance and for left or right handed operation.
