I think you'll find that they maybe chrome plated....

Looking good.

With that adaptor you could connect a 2" column to any lid.

It states that it for a stainless steel sink, it does not say it is a stainless connector, many are shiny plated steel, it may be worth asking the question, if it is ss then I think you are nearly there.

Might get one of these off ebay and solder the supplied nut into the bottom of my column

Think that's too small for my connector, domestic drains are 42mm, might go along the route of getting some of these 1 1/2 inch nuts, it would be easier to detatch the column with this type of connection anyway.

Sorry I cannot give you a dimension but the hole is sized to take a 1.1/2" BSPP threaded connector which is the same thread as the drain on the sink in your kitchen.

For anyone else reading this post and for the avoidance of doubt - I am talking about an English kitchen.

Any chance you can tell me the diameter of the hole in the t500 top?

I've got a 54mm compression fitting which is a tank connector the threaded part is similar to the diameter of the column so I was wondering if this would go through the hole

Can I ask what size the hole for the column is in the lid, I'm building my own column but may buy a T500 boiler

Just had a look, the boiler is 1 ft across..(307mm) the seal in the lid is very wide...10mm so any boiler around that size I think it would be ok.

I've only just had my 500 but if it's any help I could measure the boiler tonight and let you know....from what I've seen on photos they do look the same.

T500 and SS Super Reflux Similarity ?

2014-03-30T17:03:40+00:00

Well long time no post .. house moves (got one not on a water meter again )

Looking at a T500 and was wondering if the barrel section is the same as the SS Reflux .. ie. would a t500 lid fit on the SS Reflux and vice versa?

Hopefully someone knows !

thanks all

Iain
