Just glue two strap on bosses onto a piece of pipe done
 
I know you can use straps but can you not buy doubles on the same side ?
 
Warning- It`s for underground connections and Kloor will go for her guns if you call her mate!

:49:

lol
 
Bossed connection not normally used underground. Would normally Tee off 110x110 and reduce to 40mm above ground. Please give further details of installation.
 
Why can you not use two of the 110 x 40mm bosses joined together? They will meet up tight, similar to what you showed
 
Yep - that shows you what I have in mind for the double connector

PS my dad calls me "mate" all the time
PPS the reason for not using 2 bosses is that I just trying to be tight - mind you may cost more to get a double :)

Connections into vent not underground, post 5 misleading. Sink waste can boss onto vent up to 500mm above ground. Shower waste depends on branch to WC. 110mm Tee to WC with provision for 40mm boss at 90 degrees would suit if branch can be positioned low enough to give 1:40 fall from shower but best solution would be to have WC branch coming in at level of WC outlet, approx. 150mm above floor and use new back inlet gully, connected independently to main run, for shower and sink waste. Tell your plumber to start digging.
 
A polypipe SWA43 gives you two boss inlets in the same plane on the same fitting.

Costs way more than a pair of strap bosses though...
 
Am I the only one that dislikes strap ons...oo err.

much rather have a boss pipe where possible, strap ons a last resort for me

I also never liked them. Handy if a boss fitting is a hard job to fit. They always look an add on and if the solvent has been plastered all over the joint makes them an eyesore.

Does anyone know where I can get one of these? Toilet is leaking into the bowl. This one pushes in with a half turn but I can't find one anywhere.

The fittings below are for a mixer bar attached to a self contained shower. i.e not a wall. The attaching screws have snapped. I could get two new brackets, dismantle that existing one and start again or I could try and re attach via those screws, removing the broken ones from the plate and wall...

Hello all, I'm would like to extend an existing outside tap to another point in the garden. I'm about to pour a concrete patio and was hoping to run the water line underneath. There are existing drain (and who knows what) pipes running along the same wall so I'm nervous about digging too far...

Hi. I need a new toilet supply line but don’t know the size type of the fitting at the shut off valve. It is not 3/8 compression. It is a plastic nut about the same size as the one going into the cistern but has a different thread. Attached is a photo. Can you advise. Thanks.
