Flexicon 40 flexible connector pipe

[Julsie]

Hi all, complete newbie,
Really stuck. I've plumbed in a new kitchen sink ,taps etc and changed an isolation valve (which is still leaking ever so slightly from the top, help!) but also the waste pipes had to be re jigged but they kept leaking and I thought a flexicon connector pipe would be the answer to connect from under the plug to the waste pipe. However, both ends are screw fittings and won't marry, so what do you do? Have I just bought the wrong part? thanks

That sounds so ................... like a dirty old man.

The flexible is compression fitting to compression fitting so needs to go pipe to pipe. It looks like your missing some bits from the trap, do you have more pipes??? It’s not entirely clear where you’re trying to get to and from. Looks like the trap just needs cutting to size

Yes, took them away as they were too long, cut them down but leaking like mad. Trying to get from sink outlet above to waste opening on the right which is closer than it looks in the pic. I thought I might be able to run the flexipipe from the sink oulet to the waste opening on the left.

Looks like you have at least 2 open ends there though

Yes, was going to block the one on the right up

Are you able to edit your picture and show us where you are trying to get to and from
