I'm using one of those chinese petrol driven water pumps to transfer water
from a spring to a storage tank. Pump inlet/outlet is 2" BSP (I think) but my link pipe is 25 mm PE. Anyone know of online suppliers for reducers or connectors? The storage tank is one of those pallet mounted 1000 litre PE tanks in a metal cage, it has a nominal 2 " tap but with a coarse ACME type thread on the outlet. Connectors for that would also be of interest. TIA steve |

I did try BES but it's far from the easiest of sites. I am also looking for the threaded connections. |

They quite often carry a range of pvc reducers and adapters. -- Si Hoc Legere Scis Nimium Eruditionis Habes the dot wanderer at tesco dot net |
