Is it possible to get hold of a plastic pipe fitting that will join a
70mm diameter pipe to a 52mm pipe and if so where can I get one.

Thanks


Dopn't have a clue what is available in metric (MM) sizes, but if its
a standard sized metric PVC pipe I would imagine they make a reducer
or bushing for it, the same as they do american inch sized PVC.Go to
your local plumbing supply and they should be able to tell you for
sure. Usually there is someway yu can joijh things together with a
bit of ingenuity......I often times use my lathe to open up variouis
fittings and pieces of pipe to make certain connections and fittings,
so if yuo know anyone with a lathe they may be able to make a
transiiton or reducer pretty fast and easy, as there is nothing much
to it and PVC works super easy and fast.
