What is that thing?

[Vaskunito]

Hi everyone. Ok I need some help identifying this waste pipe insert (see attached photos).

Basically, it goes inside the 40 mm waste pipe (see photo) so it is possible to fit a trap outlet locking ring. Without that insert, the joint is not water proof and it leaks. I need to find a replacement as soon as possible.

How is that thing called? I couldn't find anything on B&Q that resembles this.
Its plastic, it has an internal diameter of 35mm and an external diameter (on one side) of 45mm. As you can see in the photos it fits perfectly on the waste pipe and on the sealing ring (ok I couldnt set it straight for the photo ) giving a waterproof seal.

Anyone? Can you help me please?

Its a cap, stopend

Basically its capping off an old waste outlet, say off a washing machine/dish washer.

hi,
ok maybe it wasnt clear from the photo, but this insert doesnt have a bottom so its not a cap (see new photo)




it didnt have a rubber ring and its only purpose is to make a watertight seal between the waste pipe (40mm) and the trap outlet. without this insert there is water dripping.

So, how can I find a replacement like that? I have 4 traps (dishwasher, washing machine and 2 basins) and 4 of those inserts. One of them is cracked and needs to be replaced. So, its not a custom job i guess but they must sell these things somewhere.

All I could find in B&Q were some rubbery 40-to-32mm reducers that didn't fit on the 40 mm waste pipe. Does anyone know where I can find something similar to this plastic insert on the internet?


Also, what other way is there to connect the 40mm waste pipe to a trap? As you can see the gray waste pipe has no joint but it has been cut out and joins to the trap with the help of that insert.

Any ideas? Thank you

ah yes indeed. it looks like it. what the hell is a Ferrule

anyway yes i think that might be it. Thanks very much. At least now I know what I am looking for and I can try to find it from that company online.

By the way, as a temporary solution i used two rubber seals. One like shown in the figure and one in the plastic Nut body and so far it seems to do the trick.

It is a temporary solution nevertheless and I should buy the ferrule....(what a name ).

Thank you very much for the info
