Steel to copper fitting

[tommy1712]

What's the smallest steel to copper fitting, got to repair a leak and the original fitter kindly put the pipes so close together you can't get a rizla between them

 

[woodytheplumber]

usuall once you cut into the pipework you can tease it out a bit I am guessing you wont be able to get a threader in so are you splitting existing fitting or maybe a philmac

 

[tommy1712]

It's a bath feed so just chopping that section out and replace in copper or plastic

 

[tommy1712]

I have not threaded since plumbing school lol

You got a joint you can take it out at for a male or female iron?

 

[Whyme]

End feed to female iron.

This one always amazes me, not for how to do it, just drag it out cut it and slap a gf or philmac on it or strip it back, but the idea of having steel pipe on water.
To me that is a 3rd world thing and never in 40 years have i ever seen any of that shyte on plumbing up here and we are the " backward" part of the uk :lol:

 

[Whyme]

i assume it's galv Tamz..lol.

 

[tamz]

Galv or not .......... its 3rd world. None of that stuff up here in the land of the free where the water is wholesome and drinkable lol

 

[Dotty]

If it's so wholesome and drinkable why do you have to water it down with whisky hmmmm?

Not that I'm complaining or nuffink. ...

 

[voivod]

[Dotty]

[tamz]

Don't be daft John. 1 cube to chill it and its away before the ice gets a chance to melt :wink:

Yet you invented Irn Bru. And Buckie...

 

[tamz]

The irn bru is full of goodness and has many medicinal uses including the easing of overindulgence.
Buckfast on the other hand is made by monks in Devon. God knows what it is full of but it keeps the young team relitively placid :wink:
