View the thread, titled "Who sells 19mm chrome copper tube?" which is posted in UK Plumbers Forums on UK Plumbers Forums.

As above please tell me if you know who (UK retailer) sells 19mm diameter chrome copper tube for an existing shower riser. I can find plenty of 15mm and 22mm but 19mm..... like hen's teeth?

What the big deal if I use 19mm chrome plated steel tube instead of copper - will I lose that much heat? The compression fittings would still work surely. The length of pipe required is 1.2 metres.

The chromed tube might be made of chrome plated brass tube.
It has nothing to do with standard plumbing pipe size and is manufactured by the shower maker.
There is however, a rising kit available for converting a bath mixer into a solid fixed pipe and shower head. It might do your job if the connection to your shower is adaptable
