Psychobilly Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Wickes sell it - 110mm underground drainage pipe.... for the large size (160mm) you might be better off going to somewhere like Jewsons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gina Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Our local Jewsons don't do bigger than 110mm. I tried quite hard to find some larger pipe without success. All I've got for most of the pier former is 180mm postal tube increasing at the base using flower pots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychobilly Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Found a couple of online sites selling the 160mm but its around £50 for a 3m length without delivery...Aircon Spiral tube is another option and available in a range of sizes from 80-630mm 150mm is about £20 a length plus vat and shipping...
