Plumbing Adaptor

Hi All,
I am looking for something which I'm not sure exists.
Eg similar to the Y piece adaptor here
http://www.4cleanerfloors.net/cgi-bin/product.pl?PID=213690&query=FLDPLUMBING%20FLDTAPSADAPTORS&path=66991,325402:325429,513505
But it does not need to split in two & it should be n shape. Eg, fits to the thread facing up and leaves a thread facing down.
Thanks

You could just get a flexible hose or build your own from push fit or compression fittings depending on what its for.Not Again0

Thanks for your replies. I'm not sure my message was clear! Basically, I have a pipe facing up & I want an adaptor that will make it face downwards. I have though of buying hose etc, but seems over the top and costly.0

Hi,
If you post the ultimate reason for your question you might get some good answers.
Otherwise crack on with the '20 Questions' format and see how long it runs for.

I currently have a hose pipe adaptor screw on. It just makes it a little awkward when I fit the hose. I would prefer it to face downwards or sideways instead of up. I am aware of self cutting taps I could use, but think it might restrict flow & is expensive. I'm also aware I could fit an outside tap, but that also isn't what I want to do.0

Might I ask as to why it's pointing up?

This thread is sort of going round in circles. Post a pic of what you've got in the precise location where you use it.supermonkey wrote: »I currently have a hose pipe adaptor screw on.
