How do I fit one of these (waste with no thread)

[mfarrow]

Hi

Bought one of these with a tap:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320587753022

I can't work out what to connect it to! It won't screw onto a trap, of course, and it's too small a diameter to fit a 32mm compression fitting.

Please help!?

why did you buy it then ?

I didn't intentionally, it came with a tap & waste set (unsited). Do you know what to use, or is that your best response?

It is probably designed to go onto a chrome bottle trap, looks like the seller has sold you half of it.

what about an hepvo trap with the comp adaptor

There are various ways I imagine it could be done but it would involve using one of those multi size push fit waste fittings or a fernco style adaptor with jubilee clips.

What is the diameter of the oulet tube??

I don't know about the one on the link, but mine definitely has.

What is the diameter of the oulet tube??

It's ~31mm.

Thanks for the responses so far.

Right if your not bothered about having a trap on show, you need a 1 1/4 extendable bottle trap. You bin the part of the trap that connects to the sink and push the chrome in to it and tighten the nut up on the trap.

If you do not want to see the trap, my advice is bin what you have bought and buy a full kit. You generally need to use a 1 1/4 mcalpine elbow recessed into the wall and tighten the chrome waste into that.

What do you expect!!! If you buy garbage from the net with no specifications and you don't know what your doing in the first place..

Take it to a decent plumbers merchant, get laughed at!!! and buy a proper solution!!! : :

The MIL bought it, I just fit what she buys.

and you don't know what your doing in the first place..

Can you expand on that comment please? Which part of my post has led you to suggest that?

They didn't have an adjustable waste to try.

I bought a pop-up waste in the end, again from eBay.
