Basin waste - 36mm pipe

[kev345]

I am renewing bathroom basin need to re-arrange waste pipe. My existing pipework is 36mm o/s dia, 32mm inside dia (pipe has beem painted so cannot read but clips say Marley 36 on the back) with glued fittings.

Can I still buy this size pipe & fittings (price lists for local plumbing stores do not mention 36mm)? If so where and if not is there some sort of reducer to change to newer 32mm pipe?


Thanks

32mm is the standard basin waste size.

you may need a multifit fitting to go onto the older pipe, http://www.mcalpineplumbing.com/productlist.asp

Contemporary 32mm waste pipe is around 36mm O.D., although the precise measurement varies from brand to brand.
