Fitting a freestanding roll top bath
I need to connect a 38mm chrome pipe to a 43mm outer diameter solvent weld pipe for the waste of a freestanding roll top bath. Do you have any ideas of the fittings I could use?

To connect a 38mm chrome pipe to a 43mm outer diameter solvent weld pipe, you will need a fitting that can adapt between these two sizes. Here’s a potential solution:
1. Reducing Coupler (or Reducer): You can use a reducing coupler that steps down from 43mm to 38mm. This fitting is commonly available in both solvent weld and compression versions. For your situation, you’d want one with a solvent weld connection on the 43mm side and either a compression or push-fit connection for the 38mm chrome pipe.
