I am working on a mod under my coaches kitchen sink and need a short piece of the 1-1/2 ABS DR24 drain pipe. I know I can use the normal sch40 ABS pipe but the dr24 pipe is thinner and makes less of a ridge in the fittings. I have searched high and low on the internet and inquired at my local RV dealer and so far all they have been able to offer is the sch40 ABS type. Anyone know where to get the factory dr24 ABS pipe?

I talked today with a company called Dave Carter & Associates, Inc today who supplies the DR24 pipe to many RV manufactures and they told me that this pipe is not available at plumbing supply houses and is only used anymore in the RV industry. The pipe was also designed to be used in the manufactured house industry but that most of them have converted over to PVC instead of using this version of ABS pipe. So it looks like the only way I might be able to get the DR24 pipe is to find a RV manufacturer that uses the DR24 pipe and will sell to people directly as most dealers can't or won't try and get it from the manufacturer of the RV.<--><--><--><--><--><--><--><--><-->

So after many phone calls and searching on the internet I found that the DR24 ABS pipe is used by almost all large RV manufacturers but no dealers, plumbing supply, home centers, specialty plastics distributors sell the pipe to the public. I did find that there is a PVC version per say that is rated for both potable and non-potable uses, has the same OD and wall thickness and feels just as flexible as the DR24 ABS pipe. Its called SDR-21 PVC and is available everywhere. I got a 20ft length of it from a local company that specializes in lawn irrigation supplies. My plan is to rough up the outside after it is installed with some 120grit sandpaper and paint with matte black spray paint so it blends in with the other ABS pipe it will be connected to. I will need to use the PVC&ABS special glue but I already have that for working with ABS to ABS joints. If this was in a wall and not seen I wouldn't worry about the paint but this will be exposed a bit under my sink and ill see it every time I get something out of the cabinet. Sometimes I dislike the amount of perfection I expect out of myself.<--><--><--><--><--><--><--><--><-->
