I need to T off a water pipe which I'm fairly certain is ½". It's covered in crud and lumpy paint and is at the back of a kitchen cabinet, so not easy to work on or measure. It's the original from about 1950 so unlikely to be
15mm.I'm not to keen on soldering it as it's about the lowest point of the system (difficult to drain) and would be almost imossible to clean. Would a 15mm brass compression T be likely to fit? Push-fit is not on as that also requires a smooth pipe.
Cheers.
