2"Hosetails

Post by benyiii »

Hi

Does anyone know if you can get 2"hosetails as I can find 2"flexi but not the hosetails to take it from rigid to flexi. Am currently replacing my piping from 11/2" to 2" and part of it goes underground to the shower. Am suprised there so difficult to find thought it would be a reasonable thing to use.

Regards

Ben

If it's the 2" flexi I'm thinking of (sort of flat-ish on the outside) then it is solvent welded directly into a normal fitment (like a 90 bend or a valve body).It has the same outside dimensions as the solid pipe so all joints you can do with solid pipe are possible with this stuff.

Don't think you'll get a 2" hosetail easily.
