Well, as the old 1.5" pipe has totally broken off, I've currently got a 50mm diameter pipe sitting over the top of the female 1.5" pipe. This all points down at about 30 degrees and goes into an open drain about 70cm away.Can you not somehow get a 2 inch pipe to secure over the top of it?
Now a decent plumber would be able to knock you up a piece of 40mm uPVC pipe which they would have warmed up over there touch to soften & carefully pushed inside another piece of pipe to make an adaptor/reducer which you could glue into that fitting / pipe stuck in the wall, yes it would reduce the bore for a short section but it would be a S/W joint not a pushed over fitting with a bit of silicone.
Get to know the materials you work with & what can be done with it ! :arabia:
omho but a botch is a botch which ever way you do it.
What about a fernco coupling ...regards turnpin
