Koi Man Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Has anyone a length of UK waste pipe 110mm diameter and at least a meter length they no longer need? New or used makes no difference. I am making a new pond filter and can't get the pipe here. Willing to collect and pay for it. Thanks in anticipation. Tony 05 55 53 34 74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koi Man Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 Thanks Alex but I was in L.M. yesterday and like every other store I've found here, they don't do 110mm. That's why I'm asking for UK size as it's a normal size over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Théière Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Yep the UK size fits over the french which is around 105mm from memory. Koi Man it would help if you could say where you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Théière Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 He he Alex, these days it's anyones guess, it used to be when I originally bought some 110mm from the UK bigger than the French pipe which was then about 105mm O/D. [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex H Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Yes, I've had the same problem with 40mm - the 40mm fittings here just rattle around on a UK 40mm pipe :-)(Just as well I live here now.........) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Théière Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I think it's the O/D vs I/D that causes the problem. I know the continental bathrooms we fitted in the hotels (UK) had a strange adapter from EU 40mm to UK 40mm.Sorry Koi man going off on a tangent (as usual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koi Man Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Thanks to everyone who is looking for me. I've updated my details - sorry but a newbie here. I'll have to go check out these stores again - take a packed lunch or something. Cheers guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobk Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Hi Koiman,I have a 55cm piece of UK 110mm plastic pipe left over from building my koi pond.Please email me if you can use it. The 110mm pipe here does not fit UK slide or ball valves.I used rubber couplings to connect between UK 110mm pipe and French 100mm pipe with no problems ie no leaks.I am in the Southern Charente near Villebois LavaletteCheersBob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
