waste pipe too big....

markeboy1888 · 7 Aug 2007

I have a small problem with my waste pipe for my sink,

The problem is the pipe coming out of the floor is too big for a 32mm fitting, but only by about 1mm or so.

Does anyone know how i can get round this? or any sort of fitting that will do the job...

any help would be appreciated.....

use a mcalpine fitting or heat a bit of 32mm pipe and ease it over the other pipe to form a socket then glue it together with solvent cement

How big is too big?

its seems the external diameter of the pipe coming out of the floor is 33mm, hence the 32mm fitting wont go over it.....

Use a McApline coupling or a Fernco.

A plumbing shop will have both.
