ProDave Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Fitting the en-suite bathroom now. Had a slight problem with one sheet of multipanel that despite being templated needed a bit of adjustment. The result of that is the hole for the shower outlet had to be enlarged slightly. So now the hose outlet fitting I have does not quite cover the hole. so I need a larger one. This is like the one I have. The flange that touches the wall is 45mm diameter https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Keenware-KSA-003-Brass-Shower-Wall-Elbow-Outlet-Round/153689371778?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D225114%26meid%3D16e9edb5c6bf458a8cec18299a196493%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dpf%26sd%3D114199202223%26itm%3D153689371778%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv5PairwiseWebWithBBEV1Filter&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 I have found this one that would do, it's 60mm diameter. BUT it's plastic. I really want a proper sold brass one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shower-Outlet-Supply-Elbow-75-x-60-x-35mm-Chrome-60mm/171729719523?hash=item27fbe390e3:g:KakAAOSwEeFVD8y7 I have also found this one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184167866578 That does not state the size. I have messaged the seller and waiting for an answer from him. In the mean time any other ideas? I think I need at least 55mm diameter, 60 would be more comfortable and I really want solid brass not plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeGrahamT21 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) How about this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HANSGROHE-Fixfit-S-Wall-Outlet-27453000/143313828432 Looks like its a brass (or some type of metal) fitting with a plastic cover, and a non-return valve.

ProDave Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 Possibly, but oh the price, I had not gone that far down the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeGrahamT21 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) ? £25 for a good finish is worth it surely? Theres some more on ebay, cheapest is £22.80 Edited May 21, 2020 by MikeGrahamT21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temp Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) Dimensions are about right.. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07Z67Y9MG/ref=sspa_mw_detail_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Says brass but is it all brass or part plastic? Ask? Edited May 21, 2020 by Temp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask? A big thank you. That looks just like the one I have only the flange part (which is a separate part) is a larger diameter and will cover my bodged hole. Just off to order it. EDIT: only after ordering it and looking at the expected delivery date, do I find it's coming from China. Amazon don't seem to make that as clear as Ebay.

Temp Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Sorry about that I didn't spot the delivery time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onoff Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 How about a bfo stainless "washer" with an outside diameter of what you want to cover the bodge? Starrett one? Polishing to mirror finish would be a git. Or a chrome plated brass tap base ring e.g: https://www.bathroomspareparts.co.uk/tap-shrouds--base-rings-2192-c.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProDave Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share Posted May 23, 2020 I have fitted the one I have for now leaving the edge of the butchered hole on show and will swap it for the Chinese one when it arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
