Underfloor pipe. How do I connect? The pipe is made of pot I think and it’s broken. My flexible toilet pipe won’t go into it properly. It’s 10cm in diameter. Thank you in advance.

Looking at the damage to the clay pipe, I think the drain adaptor will bottom out before it makes a good seal.

I would go with Aquarius’ suggestion and use a mcalpine pan connector extension, followed by a 90 degree pan connector. The extension has a longer section of fins, however it may still be necessary to carefully excavate around the clay to allow a good connection to be made.

Think of it as an archeological excavation rather than a builder’s one, go steady....

Hi. I need a new toilet supply line but don’t know the size type of the fitting at the shut off valve. It is not 3/8 compression. It is a plastic nut about the same size as the one going into the cistern but has a different thread. Attached is a photo. Can you advise. Thanks.
