Homepro (among many other DIY places) will have them..look in the kitchen section of the store.

yes as mentioned I did go to Homepro as that is where I got the parts, they didn't have the piping though and I went to 3 stores. Please do tell me where the "many other DIY places" are please. Thank you

Don't hold me responsible it is out of stock

Of course: note the size of the sink thread before buying.

And take your picture with you.

You would probably have gotten the plug as such also?:

If you're looking for something made from a metal, you're out of luck. But all the "Home" places have the plastic drains in a kit.

IMHO those gray plastic drain kits are garbage. Tighten the fitting just a little too much and it "pops" the thread. I used the blue PVC. I found the correct size screw on fitting, 2" I think, and fitted that to the drain and then built the rest using the blue PVC pipe.

Exactly my problem a while back. Had to go back to HomePro and return the drain until they found one that would fit. Or maybe sorted it out at Global - can't remember now. Actually, I think I tried to find the drain kit that would fit and HomePro couldn't do it. Exasperating for sure. I think maybe b/c trapped drains just aren't the normal in upcountry. ?

But... even the metal looking ones are plastic, I think.

Your option sounds good - wish I had tried that.

I agree ,but how do you dismantle it for blockages etc?

Just to say... when you finally do get the plastic crap to fit up, they do just fine. I have 2-3 fittings that way for several years and no issue. (knock on wood)

and the plastic gaskets are crap too, always cover mine with a UK product "plumbers mate"

I hesitated to suggest blue PVC because it seems the installation is visible?

One could color spray though.

There are screwable connectors for PVC pipes.

I use it on pressurized pipes.

For non pressurized pipes it is a bit of an overkill.
