[drips'n'shiz]

Went to replace a torbeck ballvalve and it had a 10mm brass inlet, the 15mm i had with me didnt fit the cistern, Are these common? ive never seen one before, i cant seem to find one doing a search online, i did try swapping tne internals but that didnt work :0( can anyone help? thanks

Not come across that before (but I've not been around for years).

Can't you renew the pipework to 15mm then fit?

10mm? Is that coming off the heating circuit?

Its the actual torbeck thats 10mm not the pipework, which is 15mm with a 10mm reducer

Looks good to me

DKIA heating??

In that case I'd change it for a 15mm one. Not worth all the time and trouble trying to fit it.

imho

It would have been 3/8" Quite common. A lot of continental stuff is this size.

I was wondering if it was a 10mm pipe being used as the supply to the wc and then wondered if someone had used a heating pipe.
