End cap plug/fitting (like WP26) but larger dia?

[martind]

All I need is a way to seal (water tight) the end of a short length (30”) of plastic tube-just like the WP26 fitting in the photo, but a larger diameter, maybe 60- 75mm dia (round or square). I have done it with a 110 push fitting, but when this size pipe is filled with water it is quite heavy to move at this dia /water capacity.

Although they are plumbing fittings and holding water, the end use is not for plumbing. Any ideas/suggestions? I have failed to establish if there are any fittings on the market (around the dia that I require). Willing to buy from non-UK source if that is the only option. Only need 2 fittings.

What is your end game martind? I don't really understand what you are trying to do.

Are you wanting an end cap for 68mm rainwater pipe?

Hi Phil,
My game is to soak some wooden rods.
I am trying to find a way to end cap plastic pipe that is between 60-75mm.
Yes end capping 68mm rain water pipe would be a solution.

Why not use 3" soil pipe? - you should be able to get a full range of fittings for that.

I have never seen a cap for rainwater (kinda isn't the point, it is?). I guess 2" waste is too small?

you could use some 3" soil, a glued coupler and an access plug. I think is 82mm.

is the size of the pipe critical to this or not??
if not 4" soil pipe would be the easy/cheap answer.



ps - just reread your first post, so the 4" is to heavy.
ok, back to 3" just will cost twice the amount, or man up and go with the 4"..:20:

Look at McAlpine plumbing fittings, check out an S21A, it's a 2" x 11/4" ferrule fitting which is designed to go in a socket and reduce down for a whb, as it has a lip on it that might do, you then need a cap for the small end

3" soil pipe should do it if there are fittings available. Do you know what the fittings are called or at least what type i.e solvent or push fit etc? Then, I can be specific when I phone the plumbing supplies.

Yes 2" (50mm) is too small. (The ones in the photo are 40mm).

4" too large.
