Terminating one side of a tee connector?

[markeh]

Hi,

Hopefully this is an easy question someone can help with.

I have what I believe is called a tee connector or fitting in the garage, one side comes from the mains, one goes through the wall to an outside tap and the other stays in the garage going to an old sink.

I need to remove the old sink and disconnect its water supply. Can someone please tell me what bits I need to terminate the supply to the sink at the tee?

Thanks,

Mark

Is that copper or plastic pipework below the Tee?

Put a Prestex 37A in the unused branch.

That's 3/8" Alkathene and a 22mm Tee, use the nut you have with a 22mm blanking disc inside it,

It's plastic

I guess this performs the same function as the blanking disc using the existing nut? http://www.screwfix.com/p/22mm/80500 screwfix happens to be pretty close and they dont seem to have the discs.

Thanks for the help guys, sorry for the simple question

Yes, make sure it comes with a washer to make the seal. Screwfix seem to have 15mm blanking discs, but not 22.

Toolstation will have them, if as usual, there's one next door to Screwfix

Nearest Toolstation to me is about 15 miles away, (although there is a Screwfix across the road!)

Nearest Screwfix is about a mile, there's another about 5 miles away, and 3 more around 15/16 miles away...

That's different to up here, they're usual parked on top of each other, three within 5 miles of me and they are all practically side by side.
