Are 90mm pan cons for cast iron / clay?

[WaterTight]

As in, if you have a cast soil is that always what you want?

Thanks

And what's 75mm for?

 

[WaterTight]

Actually let me start over...

How would you sort this out.

The loo is wobbly because the base is cracked/shifting. The pan connector is leaking where it's going into soil, I'm thinking because wrong size i.e. crammed into too small a soil pipe? What would be the best thing to do? Would you have to replace the base? Or could you remove the base and re-do pan cons with some sort of straight connector / ofset / angled mallarcky set up...

I'm thinking either one of these 3½"/90mm 14° Angle Adjustable Length Rigid WC Connector - Angled (4) - Rigid WC Connectors - WC Connectors | McAlpine Plumbing Products and a new plinth or one of those with 2 x 40mm offsets and do away with plinth

I know I'm just talking to myself here so please excuse the stream of consciousness

I think I've chosen the right pan connector but it will need a plinth. What would you make plinth out of and could you get a decent cut shape and finish if all you have is a not especially good jigsaw?

Thanks

whats the pan sitting on - it looks like a carefully shaped piece of toast (thick sliced)

 

[PlumbBobBob]

toast lol. it looks like chipboard to me, use some wbp or marine ply.

 

[WaterTight]

I've got some 25mm marine ply. Two bits of that looks like right thickness.

But what do you reckon to a) my choice of pan con b) my chances of cutting the plinth to look ok with a jigsaw. How do you get that neat cut look?

Looks like a potential dogs dinner to me - but hey we have all been here. So
1. altering the cast will be really tricky and expensive
2. so take the wc all out and put a 'proper mulitquick' into the cast. that will get the seal.
3. build the pan up on a thick paving slab or floor tile no absorbant stuff
4. then use a long cheaper pan connecter
5. then get paid in cash

is the floor tiles or lino?

if its tiled then just screw in a square bit of ply and tile it then set the WC on that then silicon round it and screw it down as for the stack yer just use mulitquick (flexi waste) if you shop in B&Q
