Default 10mm speedfit pipe

Hi,

Im after about 5m of 10mm speedfit plastic pipe, but i dont really want to
have to buy a whole 25m coil of the stuff.

Does anyone have any they dont want/ know of anywhere i can get shorter
lengths.

Regards

Mark

Try some local plumbers merchants. I recently bought about 10m of 15mm Hep2O
pipe from one local to me...which they just cut from a roll and charged me
appropriately.

Most good plumbers merchants will cut to length off a 100m roll.

Speedfit will fit onto copper pipe. Use copper.

Copper will kill inverts when placed in a marine fish tank

Use plastic

The local B&Q warehouse (Hedge End, Soton) has 10mm speedfit in 2 metre
lengths. This is one of the big trade B&Qs, you may find it at a trade
B&Q in your area.

Ive been in a few B+Qs, both the big trade ones and the smaller ones, and
the 10mm is only available on the reel. You must have a reasonably good B+Q
by you for them to cut it off the reel and sell it in sections.
