PVC Fittings

[Purpleheart]

Does anyone know what fittings (adaptors) are available to join 90mm PVC pipe, to a larger diameter pipe (eg, the 100mm or 150mm).

Is just a single fitting available, or do you need to construct something out of 2 or 3 different fittings.

Any picts or links to pluming supplies would be great.

My local Mitre 10 has a fitting that connects to 100mm sewer on one side and 90mm storm water on the other. Have a brandy before going to the shop as it is a lot dearer than many larger and more complex fittings.

Thanks guys.

I thought I had seem some contraption that joined the 100mm sewer grade pipe to the 90mm drainage, and had an idea it cost a stack more than most of the other fittings. I was wondering if there was an "off the shelf" fitting to do the 90-150 join.

Anyhow,I will check out the local pluming supplies place on the weekend.

Sometimes it is just good to know in advance what to ask for.

It avoids the whole......."wadda ya want that for mate !??" syndrome.

Which is usually followed by the "naa, you can't do that" syndrome.

And finally the "aww, we don't sell anything like that anyway" syndrome.

He he, sorry for the synacism, its all probably just me and my crazy ideas.

I have an adaptor for 90mm stormwater to 100mm sewer PVC. It is made by Vinidex and is marked
"100mm x 90mm PVC Stormwater AS1254"
I think I bought it at Bunnies but cannot remember price.
The external diameter is 100mm so it fits into a 100mm straight union or other fitting and the 90mm pipe fits inside the adaptor
Hope that helps

yeah have a look in bunnies plumbing section, they are an "on the shelf" item .....it'll save you the hassle of explaining to the stickybeak ..

i got 90-100joiner then 100 - 150from reeces the other day cant remember the price though. they will help ya more than bunnies though

Thanks for the replies everyone.

Ok.

90 -> 100 mm convertor - a couple of dollars.

150 - 100 mm reducer (sewer grade) - $$$$$.

This fitting does not fit "over" the 150mm pipe. You need to either get the end of the 150mm pipe that has been expanded, or you need

150 - 150 mm sleeve/joiner (sewer grade) - $$$$$$.

Why do I get these silly ideas.

Ok.

Why do I get these silly ideas.

so that we can tell you how silly it is

NOT Illegal I hope
