Stopcock cut out, what fittings to replace?

[armyash]

Hi guys.

Been to that stopcock job tonight and the customer has asked me to cut the existing one out and replace.

The pipework will be getting upgraded to copper/mdpe at some point apparently.

Can someone help with the fittings needed? see pics.

The end of the stopcock with no fitting attached was screwed in to an elbow and the other side has obviously been cut.

I'm thinking bush(?) in to the elbow with fitting and section of pipe added. Then the new stopcock, what is the best fitting to connect to the cut pipe? Johnson coupling? Is that ok long term though??

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Who cut it out? I take it they have no water on?

There's no one living there

Nice one! No pressure then.

Take it to a good merchant, from memory a Johnson fitting would do.

Looks ideal thanks, are they likely to be kept on the shelf in local merchants or would I be better off going to Grahams or Plumbcenter etc?

Let your fingers do the walking.
