Within commercial and domestic settings, steel pipe and tubing is used to manufacture appliances, as protective coverings for utility pipes, and within numerous fabrications and engineering projects. They come in all commonly used sizes as well as various materials including copper, chrome and polybutylene. Steel tube is also often referred to as poles, or pipes; which term is used usually refers to the application it is being used for. The durable but flexible design of a flexi pipe will provide you with a long-lasting connection of water supply without hassle of trying to align pipes to match up in awkward, confined spaces, offering complete flexibility for any required angle or offset. If so, try the curtain section in the sheds - they do chromed tubing at 18mm for curtain rails, up to about 2.

You are right - there is a 15mm nut so I could use 15mm chrome tube instead of the 18mm that comes with the kit. The problem is the previous owner (or worker) has taken the pipe, put in a 15mm Hep20 insert, filed off the outside of the black pipe and pushed it into a Hep20 straight which then goes into normal 15mm barrier pipe. The steel pipe we supply is manufactured form BS1387 grade mild steel which is available in a red oxide finish (often used for gas and oil installations) and galvanised which is ideal for compressed air installations and external applications. We offer a custom cutting service at no additional cost- saving you time and money- also minimises waste.

Plumbing pipe connects all of the various elements to complete a system within a commercial or residential property.

it sounds like old alkathene,will be class c or class d,these two types require if my memory is correct,different inserts.Most merchants will sell adapters as already said - not much chance until Tuesday though, unless you know a plumber who will flog you some bits out of his van.

The range offers a great choice of connection types and fittings from top quality brands and will suit any requirements for your next project.
