10mm pipe insulation

Does 10mm pipe-insulation exist? Neither toolstation nor any of my local plumbers merchants have it. They all only seem to stock 15mm.

 

Is it that 15mm pipe insulation fits snuggly on a 10mm Hep2O pipe?

 

(I will be using it to lag my Hep2O pipes as they emerge from my insulated raft-foundation.)

Yes. The usual suspects don’t do it but you can buy it on line. I bought a batch in 2016 or 17. It was in 2m lengths and was not split. The nit split bit was a surprise but I just pushed it over the pipe prior to connecting up. I think it came from an air con type place but it was just regular pipe insulation and nothing fancy.

Helpful insight! I've think I have found a local air-con merchant that stocks it. I will pop over on Monday and see if they will sell me some. My concrete contractors are on site so I don't really want to wait for mail order if I can avoid it.
