50mm waste pipe?
Hi,
I need to Tee in to the main soil stack for our new shower waste which is 50mm. What the best method of doing this as the boss connectors and straps Ive been able to find so far will only accommodate 40mm? Thanks, Matthew |

50mm waste pipe?
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Matthew saying something like: I need to Tee in to the main soil stack for our new shower waste which is 50mm. What the best method of doing this as the boss connectors and straps Ive been able to find so far will only accommodate 40mm? You could cut a 50+mm hole in the side of the stack, insert the 50mm pipe by an inch and plaster around it with epoxy, if that will stick to the PVC or whatever it's actually made of. Rough as hell, though. Are you sure you can't find 50mm fittings? There are some around. |

I've just done this very deed. For a wide range of 50mm solvent stuff, where I got mine: http://www.fascias.com/index.html?ta...tml&lang=en-gb For the final junction to certainly a Floplast (and probably Hunter) boss: https://supreme1.sslpowered.com/cgi-...txt&item=00035 Screwfix sell the same for the 40 and 32mm. Bit of silicone spray or fairy liquid to help the 50mm pipe in and you're good. |

The ones to the right are 50mm. The main boss is available in black, grey, maybe brown and sometimes white. Cheers Tim |
