12mm Water pipe needed near Malaga (2 Viewers)

[Jammel1980]

Does anyone know anywhere in or around Malaga where I can buy 12mm semi rigid water pipe, (only need about 2m).
I have been into Boat shops and plumbing shops and they are of no help what so ever, they just keep sending me to each other.

It’s looking like I’ll have to buy some from the uk and have it shipped over which isn’t a problem but I don’t really want to wait too long for it to arrive.

Many thanks.

I had the same problem in France trying to buy a 22mm joint, although the van is made just over the hill in Germany.
I eventually bought a piece of 22mm flexible (see through) nylon tube as a temporary fix - -- its still on there!

Ahh ok thanks that’s an idea. I’ve seen a lot of the flexible pipe about, how would I connect it to the push fits at either end though?

Maybe, take off the push fits, push on a flexible pipe that is a size that makes it tight ishhhhh and use a Jubilee clip.

It was such a good fit that I had to warm it up in boiling water to push it onto the bare pipe ends

Excellent, warmed up and with a bit of washing up liquid smeared on the pipe.

If the push fit is a bit on the small side wrap some tape around to bulk it out a bit and then a jubilee clip if needed.

Will this be ok for a pressurised system?

How much pressure? Which pump?
I can't see it being very high it's only a MoHo pump.
I would suc it and see.

Try a commercial vehicle repair shop they use rigid nylon/plastic pipes for air brakes etc plus shove on joints elbows & junctions.
