Hi all -
Replacing a bath I got online and it came with a waste kit. Fitted bath and waste kit to bath (spring waste and overflow) and now trying to connect trap but it's not having any of it. Firstly, the pipes don't seem to align properly; isn't the inside of the trip meant to sit slightly inside the diameter of the pipe the compression is butting up against? Also, the threads don't align so I can't even screw it on. Have tried it the 40mm trap from the old bath, and also had a new one from screwfix but neither fit. According to the company it fits with a mcalpine 40mm trap so can't see where I'm going wrong. The kit itself is here and I've included a photo to show the situation. Hoping someone can help as I'm absolutely stuck! THANKS
