I'm trying to fit a new bath in my old house. The waste outlet is a 1 3/4" Lead pipe. Is there a simple way for me a as DIYer to connect lead pipe to the standard 1 1/2" plastic waste trap from the bath ?

When connecting a plastic metric waste pipe from a bath to a metal imperial pipe in the wall is it standard practice to use denso tape on the outside of the join? Does it stop potential leaking or movement?
