Ran low of my last lost of solder ring elbows from BES, so nipped into
Screwfix and got these:

Pay attention to the piccy. Doesn't look like this:

Don't look the same do they? In fact the ones I got were a different size
(longer) than the BES ones (annoying when doing close parallel runs of
pipe) and looked rather deformed compared to *every* solder ring fitting
I've ever seen in my life.

Also, they are tight to get on the pipe rather than just sliding on - near
impossible sometimes.

What gives? Screwfix are saying they are "Yorkshires" with a valid Pegler
Yorkshire code (YP12). But they seem to be a piece of reject crap...

Anyone else noticed anything like this?

Would you like me to call into Peglers and ask them?

I just happen to be working next to their Doncaster factory this week (St
Caths Ave in Balby), Doncaster. I am rewiring a house on Carr Hill Road.
(Google map it yourself)

I am quite happy to knock on their door and ask for you.
