.....i'm feckin about with plumberin again.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
Want to reuse the nice, deep, but single basin, kitchen sink I took out by putting it in the utility. But it's going to be tight doing the pipework, so I want to fit flexi-tails instead of reuse the ones I already have on the monobloc tap, which is a nice one too.
So took them off, they have male ends with, as far as I can tell, 14mm ends with thread size of 1.5. But they are a bit weird cos they have a kind of shoulder on them at the end of the thread, followed by an O-ring that sits in a groove. Of course they sit dead tight together which accounts for the 4 sided spannery bit, so you can do them up.
I'll put a coupla pics up.

I'm afeared they are a special fitting and I will end up having to cut them down and fit a push-fit flexi to that. but the bastids have about 60mm of roughly 12mm (NOT 1/2") before it flares out to 15mm. So whatever I do doing this it'll extend everything further downwards than I want.

GGGGRRRRRRR!!!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
and before anyone asks, they came with the feckin tap. Which is why I don't know the dimensions.
Think I'll give up for the day.:(:(:(

Why is plummering always a pita :(:( I feel your pain.
 
I thought I was on holiday from today, I bumped into a chap I know when I was out walking the
dog & he needs some roof repairs. Start on Friday as his house is leaking badly & is damp.. very damp.
So I need to help him as id feel bad if I didnt. :) Plus its pocket money for a new toy :cool::D
