Title: 3-way corner PVC pipe connectors, why so difficult?
Post by: zpyder on October 03, 2014, 15:01:23 PM
So I've got a few mini-projects in mind that again are using overflow pipe (much like the ROV did). It's now all coming back to me why I used the connectors I did for the ROV...3-way corner connectors just don't seem to exist!

This is what I am after, but A: It's ebay, and B: It's from America! (This is for work so it needs to be a proper purchase and not ebay)

I appreciate that the design of such pipe might mean that water doesn't flow as they should, but I'd have also thought that they were such an obvious "need" for certain applications!

Can anyone suggest a UK source? Even "Plumb centre" doesn't have them...

My first thought was somewhere like CPC or RS, any good to you?

Usually you need the correct terms for the country in these sort of things

http://www.twowests.co.uk/product/19mm-tube-3-way-90deg-joint

http://www.componentforce.co.uk/category/996/19mm-round-tube-connectors

From search = 19mm PVC tube 90° 3-Way Corner connectors

Any help?
