Chrome bottle trap seems to be a 30mm dia waste pipe, not 32

[Deansplit]

I'm installing a couple of small en suite sinks (glass bowl type for the record) which came with a stainless/chrome bottle trap, but the waste outlet pipe is 30mm so won't connect to my plastic 32mm original waste. Is there a converter I need to buy?

Thanks

Compression waste fitting usually does the trick.

You mean the plastic ones? So there's not a 30-32mm converter then?

The 32mm plastic compression coupling will do fine - the rubber gasket will take up the slack. The joint won't be particularly sturdy, but it should be watertight.

I had a similar problem with the chrome outlet pipe on a trap a customer had bought.
I found the chrome pipe was a neat tightish sliding fit INSIDE my 32mm waste pipe,and as the customer didnt want an ugly plastic compression fitting in the exposed area under his sink,with a little bit of silicone to seal the joint,thats the way we went,he chome sprayed the plastic pipe,you hardly notice the join.
That was 6 years ago,not had a problem with it.
