Plastic Water Trough

[Ashers]

Hello,

First time poster and looking for some help.

Ive just bought a field and have had the water connected and looking to connect 25mm mpde pipe to a trough.

The trough had a 20mm brass / Cooper connection and I can’t seem to find something to link the two.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Agree Gloi's suggestion, also it depends exactly what the issue is. As well as the obvious of different sizings, you may be up against mismatches for metric/imperial, copper/plastic and different makes don't always fit together properly.
Possibly easiest to convert the 25mm down to 20mm before the trough, converters are available, then you are into a 20mm system.
These things can be a real headache, IME you often have to do a workaround + bodge to get something that will work.
If you have a good local plumbing supplier it can help - take bits into the shop and ask what they have.

Sorry, I'm useless at adding links,but look at Drainage Sales or google MDPE 25mm reducer, there are lots of firms that do them, should not be hard to get one. Or Speedfit on Amazon

Hmm. Not quite what I thinking of, might work depending on water pressure. the usual ones have a screw on fitting for both pipes going in. See Toolstation, Floplast, Skystation - all do them

Yeah this isn’t going to work but the looks of it.

I found this https://www.screwfix.com/p/floplast-492113-mdpe-reducing-coupler-25mm-x-20mm/14632

But need something from the trough to this.

Any suggestions?

All depends on exactly what you already have at the trough, so hard for anyone to advise on what will connect them.
