Re: [DIY] Stuck 2 inch water pipe

 

Perfect.

Went next door to borrow neighbors wrench and he came along.  Did take two people and a six foot cheater.  

Now I'm find the new tub is two inches lower than the old one.

I can put the new sink on blocks or lengthen the water pipes that feed the faucet or make a new and taller faucet block.

Do they make a copper sleeve that would allow me to cut the pipes and resweat them to longer pipes?  Only need to add two inches.

Thanks

Cheater pipe.  Take an old piece of steel pipe and slip it over the pipe wrench.  More torque.  Do the same for the piece it's connected to only in the opposite direction.  This will hold the pipe steady as you remove the part you want to take off.  Otherwise you might end up twisting and bending the whole thing.  Could be a two-man job just to do that one removal.

I am trying to remove a threaded fitting from a 2 inch water drain pipe.

Three foot pipe wrench does not do the job.

Any tricks?

Heat cold saw?

Thanks
