I have an a water supply to an outside toilet cistern and want
to remove it. I will convert the cistern supply (lead pipe) to an
outside tap.

The BES web site has these fittings...
but how do I know what 'weight' is the lead pipe supply to the cistern?
Lead to Copper
Part No. Description Unit Price
10270 3/8" x 5 lb lead to 15 mm compression £2.05

10271 1/2" x 6 lb lead to 15 mm compression £2.76

10272 1/2" x 7 lb lead to 15 mm compression £2.60

10273 3/4" x 9 lb lead to 22 mm compression £4.73







Cannot answer your question directly but my lead supply had the weight
embossed on a stripe on the side. That said I had no luck getting those
fittings to seal, and ended up doing a wiped joint.
