Hi Richard.
At 21.5 you will find it is 1/2" Nominal Bore PIPE (NOT TUBE). (actual
size 0.840" OD or 21.336mm).
You could cut a thread on it or look for a 1/2" Nominal Bore compression
fitting.

Hi Baz,

Are you saying that a 1/2" compression fitting for copper is not suitable?

Hi Richard.
What I am saying is. You have PIPE not TUBE.
You need a 1/2" Nominal Bore compression fitting. Or a DN15 compression
fitting, which is the same thing but metricateted.
Take your bit of offcut to your local Builders merchants and they will sort
it out for you.

BTW. What fitting did you have on the Pipe at the start?
