Thank you, you legend, boy do you make me chuckle! This video helped me solve a leaking Strap Boss which I found the glue to stick it had worn away. Doesn't look like it was etched at all for bonding, tut, tut, assuming sandpaper will do for the etching. Keep up the great videos, love em, hold tight!!

@michaelbalfour3170 10 ай бұрын

I've used sandpaper before, worked a treat, just be really sure to clear the debris of it as it creates a lot of dust which can mess up the bond.

@simongreenidge6454 3 жыл бұрын

Etching is less important than ensuring that all the surfaces to be fused are completely clean of oil or grease. The solvent weld "adhesive" works by dissolving the surface of the items being bonded, allowing them to mix together. It's not acting as a traditional adhesive.

@seracleroc9675 3 жыл бұрын

Done loads of DIY but this is a first for me. I'm putting in a new stack BUT I'm confused about how to get a 40mm pipe into the stack. I want it to go into the junction that has cut outs for additional pipes. I only could use a 52mm holesaw due to the plastic moulding so when I've tried to get a 40mm rubber boss adaptor in will it hell as go, even less hope of getting a 40mm pipe in that. I'm obs using the wrong thing. Any help!!!

I am adding a basin to a horizontal waste under a floor beside a joist so difficult to get access with a drill to make the hole and the ‘top’ you mention will be at 90degrres . Would it be better to cut out a section of the waste and use 2 joiners even though the wouldn’t be able to be pushed in fully ?

any thoughts from experts regarding how high to put these on outside wall on garden side, i personally would not use this on outside wall where kids may accidentally touch these. i would use these above 1.6-2 meters +. once these are on and you have a leak its a nightmare to replace or fix

Do you have a video on fitting the MCAlpine 22mm condensate pipe connector - Mechanical Boss Connector : Product Code - BOSSCONN-22mm? It's a fitting that needs an odd shape hole in the soil pipe. It says you can use the McAlpine fitting instructions as a template but what is the best way to cut the hole in plastic soil pipe? Do you need to use silicon sealer to prevent leakage? Any help would be really appreciated. Do I need any special tools?

do you need to do the etching/solvent weld onto a cast iron pipe? cheers . . in fact what would you do differently for cast iron pipe in general?

@nobodydoesithalfasgoodasyou 2 жыл бұрын

Seems likely you've already resolved your problem but here's my advice: First thing is to check the diameter of the pipe. Good chance it's 3½" which is not going to marry at all well with a boss for a standard 4" pipe Second thing is solvent weld is only for PVC and ABS. THIRD thing is I wouldn't recommend trying to glue a plastic fitting to a metal pipe because there will be differential thermal expansion and the joint will not be durable. If I were you I'd buy a McAlpine mechanical boss designed for a cast iron pipe. I've never actually used one but it looks sound in principle!

That runs into the back of wall into bathroom , not rocket science , the problem is how do I get the old metal sewer pipe out that goes through wall into a connector that’s offset then into back of toilet , the pipe from toilet waste which is metal or clay is got all Cement and brick work ,do I chisel it out or just go square around the pipe and remove it that way removing some bricks aswel or is there a short cut , I don’t have to remove it but I want all plastic pipes from start to finish !

Plumber from the states here... love your vids btw, but question: why do you all use those boss's to make a tee connection??? Were I'm from saddle type fittings are illegal (Kentucky, but my state code is really strict anyways,one example is we have to individually vent every fixture to a main vent stack that terminates above the roof, or even more... wet venting are absolutely not allowed anywhere in Kentucky state plumbing code), but even across the states everyone usually uses just uses solvent welded tee fittings.. what is the reasoning behind you using those instead of standard fittings, because it seems like much more work to use those boss's to me. Is it cheaper???
