I've just bought a new basin mixer tap, and I'm a bit confused by the
tap hoses. There are two 10mm 'pipes' at the end, no thread or nut.
How do I connect these to my 15mm copper pipes? I'm very new to this
plumbing lark, any help appreciated.

Or buy a pair of 10mm flexible tails ...to replace the copper

Stuart

Sorry, I didn't explain this too well at first, I had a look at the
recommendations and I don't think its the right thing. From my mixer
tap I have two stainless tails that end in a stainless steel part, about
3cm long and 10mm in diameter. There is a slight lip 1/3 along it, but
no thread etc. Looks like it should 'plug' into something. I'll try
and photograph them, as my explaination is not too great!

Anyone with experience of these, help appreciated.

Thanks.

Andy
