Hi folks

I need to get my hands on a couple of pieces of copper pipe for the kitchen tap.

the pipe screws into the tap at one end and then is attached to the water supply at the other end.

Does anyone know where I can get these? I have tried B&Q, Woodies, Homebase & Atlantic Homecare, but they only seem to stock "normal" copper piping.

Many thanks
 
The copper pipe you refer to has a 15mm diameter as opposed to the 1/2" diameter of Irish pipe; your best bet is to go to a proper plumbers' merchant.
 
The pipe is indeed metric but also narrows to a 10mm male thread.you should be albe to buy these pipes in a fexli version as opposed to copper. If your really stuck buy a cheap set of monobloc kitchen taps (€35) most of them come with what you need.
 
Thanks guys

Do you know if Heat Merchants store these? I looked through their catalogue on www.heatmerchants.ie but couldn't find what I was looking for. Don't want to waste a journey to their stores if they don't stock these.

Thanks again
