So we have a 1.5" female connector, and the pipe going into it has snapped off, leaving itself glued flush in there. The pipe is for an exterior pipe leading down (at about 45 degree) into a drain. So can anyone think of a way to connect a fresh pipe onto it?
It's basically as per this image - http://images.discountleisureproducts.co.uk/images/products/zoom/1350554885-27644900.jpg (but the hold pipe has snapped off perfectly leaving no way to slide in a replacement.
The diameter of the female part is approx 49mm and I need to attach a pipe - ideally another 1.5" pipe to it.
There is no room to saw it as this is a 90 degree elbox connected straight onto a pipe coming through the wall. So no room to play with, and the pipe coming inside is hard to access.
Surely there's someway to connect a 1.5" female to another 1.5" female? eg: Wrap something around that glues/braces them togethor? Just need a solid 1.5"/49mm ring that will go over both females parts and glue/stick/weld them togethor?
At the moment I've got it sitting in a 50mm pipe which leads down into the drain to get the water from a->b. And even that is OK as the water is flowing down. Worse case I'll just try and make something out of that, and have have that 50mm pipe carry the water from the 1.5" female outlet down to the drain, and silicon seal around the small gap when the 1.5" female sits inside the 50mm pile.
