Good Morning again,

I appreciate the advice some of you gave yesterday regarding a soil pipe fitting.

I do however have one more question and it relates to the size of compression fittings. I have been given this flexible hose that came as part of a new toilet, there was a customer like isolation valve which then attached to a 15mm pipe. Unfortunately, the original part has been lost and I need to find a new one.

It seems as though the internal thread of this unit sits at approximately 15mm or almost at 5/8ths, the external diameter is 20mm and just over 3/4inch.

I need to replace the fitting that connected the end of this flexi hose to an isolator that will go to a 15mm pipe, It would be great if anyone could recommend something.

I have attached pictures for clarity.

Thanks in advance.

Rhys

I’m not entirely sure I follow what you want. Are you wanting something to connect onto this flexi, are you wanting an isolation valve or both?

I basically need an isolation valve that will be the union between the Flexi pipe and a 15mm mains pipe. The other end of the Flexi pipe will be connected to the toilet.

Sorry for the confusion
Thanks
 
I’d go for this:

The nuts should be 1/2”, there’s a risk it’s 3/8, but try by screwing onto the toilet inlet trying both ends.
 
That looks like a supply pipe that you would get in the likes of a concealed cistern. To connect the isolator to the inlet valve. I had a grohe one to fit like that before chrustmas.
 
One end will go into the fill valve

the other end looks like a filling loop valve

Use the long valve as that has a double check valve in
