22mm fittings to old 3/4 pipework.

[MK_Swans]

I have always used my local plumbcenter. They've always had either the 3/4 olives or the imperial to metric end feed sockets!

peat you can get 3/4 to 22mm endfeed converters as mk_swans said

I don't think you'll have much joy with an end feed coupling I've just had similar issues in a bathroom refit connecting onto old pipe work tried a 22mm end feed elbow to join new to old and the solder wouldn't bridge the gap on the old pipe work I ended up using a 22mm speed fit push fitting

Is that wise? Surely the 22mm Speedfit O ring is too slack on the 3/4" pipe & worse still, the gripper may not hold?

Peat, I meant 22mm to 3/4 converters/reducers.

Old pipe, coupler, New 22, valve, New 22, coupler, old pipe.....see what I mean?

You need to get back to that job ASAP and remove that fitting before the place floods.

What a bodge.

Dont just lash the end feed couplers into your box as then you will spend ages finding they are no good on 22mm pipe like i did a few months ago and they still surface to my annoyance CHK

Youre kidding right?

you dont use a 22mm coupler!!

you use a 3/4 to 22 mm coupler for imperial to metric to convert it.

as for 22mm speed fit on 3/4 copper pipe.........

i hope you have decent insurance......... Because you're sure gonna need it

Thread a piece of earth wire through your 22mm x 3/4 connectors & twist the ends together & you won't get them mixed up with ordinary connectors.

THese fittings used to a have a green end - not nowadays.

I cannot see the difference - my eyes are going so I do most things by touch ! CHking
