Can some point out a link for plumbing lingo in regards to numbers.
I've tried searching but can't find anything.
Eg, no.9, no.15.
Thanks for your help.

Found something here
If you look here, there is a straight coupler that is a NO. 1, and equal Elbow thats NO. 2. etc.
Was wondering if there an info page the list them all in detail.
Love the comments tho…
Came here for the comments on #1 and #2s
;)
not sure about 9 or 15 but I am familiar with no. 69
15 could be a 15 degree junction
perhaps he said he needs 9 x 15's?
Posts a q in a forum first then looks up on google second..
I've already said i've tried searching… thanks anyways.
I can tell you but it's going to be $150 an hour (minimum 1hr charge) plus parts and labour
Minimum 2 hours right? Sounds fair..
how bout a stubby….
and $100 callout fee.
I dont think what you are asking even matters. If you need a straight coupling you just order a straight coupling in the size listed in the options? 16mm, 25mm etc.
Im not actually buying any plumbing part. Where i work in hardware (not the plumbing section) i get alot of questions from plumbers who ask for "3/4 inch no 15", i know this refers to a BP (Back Plate), as was told by a plumber, but there seems to be little documentation as to where the term comes from.
Walk over to the people working in the plumbing section, and oooh I dunno… ask them?
He's showing initiative doing it here in his own time rather than taking up two people's time at work.
They refer to your lucky Tattslotto numbers
number 1 is urination
Number 2 is defecation
I don't really think I know (or want to know) the rest of them, but I'm sure people will fill you in.A "pony" is $150.
It could be sizes, it could be part numbers, it could be thier own coding system on jobs, it could be an injoke rating your wife. Eagles Plumbing Supplies or Reece's are where trade plumbers go, ask them if they know what it means. Try a little more context to help them out helping you.
Hi Nutrino , well done on showing interest in learning something new (even though the number system is decades old). The reason for the number system is to save time rattling off or writing a long description for the required fittings
Either drop into a tradelink plumbing store and pick up their tradepex brochure it has all the common fittings and their corresponding no's or download a copy.
http://www.tradepex.com.au/downloads/brochure/1/2" - DN 15 - 15mm pipe
3/4" - DN 20 - 20mm pipe100, 90, 65, 50, 40 = pipe size (normally PVC)
5,10, 15, 45, 90 = bend angle
100 + 45 = 100mm pipe with a 45 degree angle.
9 means "Nine" means this many" X X X X X X X X X.
Is it in relation to tools or pipes? Any context you could provide us?
