So, after 30+ years service, the kitchen sink outlet has failed
after much searching of Screwfix, plumbers merchants etc., I can't seem to find the bit I want, which I believe is called a waste or trap.
The majority seem to be listed as 1¼"(32mm) or 1½" (40mm) where the hole in the sink is 2"(50mm)
Am I measuring the right bit or is it the pipe size?
Pictures for reference, the hole is 50mm, just the camera angle makes it look less.
Of course, it has to happen now, about 6 months before we planned to have the kitchen replaced.
