Well I bloody cursed it by saying my last post would be my last post.
Just in the process of finally fitting the bath in to seal it and I realised I couldnt find the washer that goes between the bath outlet and the shallow waste
the part number ht03-10 in the diagram.
I thought I had found a replacement washer from the old pillar tap (well it fitted) but no such luck.
Took the waste apart and rushed to screwfix- bugger its Saturday, closed!!!
So last hour I have been trying to find one.
The sizes make no sense at all to me as some are in mm and others are in inches - which I get.
But when I search for 1 1/2 sealing washers I get washers with 71 outer diameter.
The fitting I have (see photo) has 1 3/4" threaded nut, outer diameter of 44 (poss 45mm) and inner diameter of27mm and a thickness of 8mm
I have searched and searched yet cant seem to find the exact thing that matches,
I found this one:
www.stevensonplumbing.co.uk
but that doesnt give me the inner dimension
and also this one
www.plumbers-mate-sales.co.uk
But thought that is not wide enough.
The only thing I can see that actually measures correctly is
Would these work?
Or what do I need that I can buy tomorrow
I am already in big trouble as the bath was due to be sealed tonight for Mrs S coming home tomorrow night!
Thanks in advance
