Where can I find this type of reducer?

[transatlantic]

This isn't for dust extraction, it's actually for something completly non wood working related, but I am trying to source something like this

It doesn't have to be those exact measurements (90x34), around ~100mm by ~35mm, but it does need to match the shape. Any ideas? I know that record do something similar, but it's not the same shape.

I thought I'd find this kind of thing in Wickes/B&Q etc in the guttering section. But no

Cut the top off a plastic bottle?

Bleach bottle.

Sorry - I should have mentioned that it needs to be sturdy, so something like PVC pipe

 

[custard]

Any of these any good?

They're spares from the Dust Extraction box of bits, you're welcome to them.

 

[transatlantic]

Thanks Custard! .. but I'm really looking for that specific shape above (~100mm to ~35mm) ... for ...aesthestic reasons

Thanks - but I already looked there. And there is nothing with the same shape and size

It might help if we knew what you are trying to do.

Turn it out of wood or even a block of plastic if you can get it

tell us why you need it and we might come up with better solutions for you.

in the meantime i suggest you try places like pond plumbing suppliers - they stock lots of unusual pipe fittings you dont get in domestic plumbing suppliers, and they are usually available in waste pipe and pressure PVC pipe specifications

you'd be looking for a 4" to 1 1/4" reducer (most sizes are imperial in the pond world)

It looks exactly the same as a rubber boot protector found on large trucks and industrial vehicles, they are fitted on brand new track rods and drag links so the rubber isn't damaged in transport before they are fitted onto the vehicle.

The plastic reminds me of ABS. There are similar shapes here, but not the exact same dimensions.

soil pipe is 110mm waste is typically 38mm. not very often that the two meet, even less often they meet in this way. makes for a rare fitting in this country. in the states it would be 4-2" and is much more common.

in the states it would be 4-2" and is much more common.

Proper pipe, not metric drainage pipe, is designated by its nominal bore. 4" pipe has an outside diameter of 4 1/2" or 116mm. 2" pipe is 2 3/8" or 60mm. So it is not even close to 4" x 2".
