Grey water pipe and fitting

Where is the best place on the web to search for grey water piping. Have a small leak in mine. I’m not even sure what to search for lol. I see it’s ABS pipe and fittings but am not finding what I’m looking for, straight nipples and fittings. Nipples have factory made bell end on them. Thanks in advance.
  • Just a note, double posting of the same thing is against the rules here.

    Good luck.

    Have you tried Lowes or Home Depot plumbing section ?

  • Your local plumbing supply or hardware store is probably the best source for what you need.
  • In Texas they all sell PVC pipe, but I was in California and the Home Depot there stocked mostly ABS pipe. You could probably find what you need on Home Depot or Lowes websites and get free shipping if you buy enough.
    I'm not sure about the nipples with bell ends, you should be able to use standard fittings and then just cut your own nipples out of a section of pipe
  • Try a local plumbing wholesaler. Or do an online search for the part you want and find an online source. Some RV dealers stock a selection of ABS fittings. Should be easy.
  • It should all be standard off the shelf ABS parts.

    If ABS is unavailable you can use PVC with a rubber coupler between the ABS and PVC.
  • ABS at any hardware or plumbing supply. Probably 1.5" pipe. Post a pic to identify the fitting.
  • The gray with "bell mouths" is probably just electrical conduit. You can get it at any Lowes, and they have all the fittings
