I need to replace an old gunked up bottle trap and strainer basket. How do I know if I need 32mm or 40mm?:confused5:
 
By the size of the pipe.

OR

Wrap a length of string around your pipe and mark it, then take string with you and find the pipe section first to compare sizes.
 
If its for a kitchen sink it should be 40mm

We did have a poster the other day claiming his was 20mm and chrome! In today`s world should is not as strong a word as it used to be if you see what I mean.
 
Thank you rpm. Whilst I'm being a noob.....does the 32mm & 40mm refer to the pipe diameter?

I am in process of replacing an existing sink with a new stainless steel one. The existing tap is plumbed directly to copper which means that it is earthed. The new tap will use flexible tails and so will not be earth bonded. My initial search for information suggests that there is no legal...
