What's the benefit to cutting the hub away?
Just a supply issue. If you can find the coupling to adapt PVC to a cast
iron hub, great. I've never seen any of those locally, but standard
Fernco's are easy to find. Unless the hub is part of a cast iron Tee or
something, I see no value in keeping it. Cut back to straight pipe and use
a common fitting.
I agree that does make more sense since the OP hasn't busted out the
lead joint yet. I was under the impression he'd removed it clean to
the hub and could simply use a donut. The donuts are standard issue,
and any chain hardware store will give you the online price delivered
to a local store if that works better for you.
