There are different types of 'cap' that are plastic and glued to the drainpipe. If this is under the kitchen sink, and is a 'p' trap, then the plastic nut either side of it will unscrew with a pair of channel lock pliers or a small pipe wrench. If, on the other hand this is a 'cleanout' cap on the end of a drainpipe, then there will be a 'nut' formed into the end of it. Turn this nut with a wrench to remove it. Have shallow bowl or small bucket ready to catch water from this.

What is wrong if the sink and the bathtub will drain but the toilet wont flush?

The toilet itself is plugged or the pipe from the toilet to the drain is plugged. It may be that the tub and sink have their own drain pipe that may connect to the main away from the toilet drain. Plunge the toilet or sometimes if you fill a 5 gallon bucket with water and pour it into the toilet as fast as it will take it, that will flush out the line. It is a greater amount of water all at once an forces out what the clog is.

What is take up when bending pipe?

Take-up in pipe bending refers to the amount of material that is shortened or lost in length due to the bending process. When a pipe is bent, it experiences deformation, which results in a change in the length of the straight section of the pipe. The take-up is important for ensuring accurate measurements and fitting of the pipe in its intended application, as it affects the overall dimensions and alignment. Proper calculations and adjustments for take-up help maintain the integrity and functionality of the bent pipe.

What is the hottest water a plastic PVC pipe can withstand?

PVC can take hot water like any other pipe but the reason no one wants to use it on hot water lines is because the glue joints can not take hot water so if your talking about straight pipe then it will be ale to take 212 degrees but if your talking about pipe and glue joints then it will fail around 65 + degrees F . If you want to run hot water in PVC you can use CPVC and the glue joints an pipe can with strand 212 degrees F but after some years as I have seen the pipe gets real brittle and so i always recommend the best called Wirsbo or any class AA pex

How do you clean trane Air conditioning drain lines?

If you're referring to drain lines coming from the drip pan beneath the air handler (the one inside the house), then just take some bleach water and pour it in the drip pan and it'll flow down the pipe and clean. If you're referring to another drain line coming from the machine itself, go ahead and cut off the pipe and replace it with a new pipe. Make sure you know what you're doing. It's PVC pipe, so use appropriate PVC glue and elbow joints. For best results, call your installation professional.

What is the best type of glue to use on warhammer 40k assembly?

In my personal opinion I use a glue called "Zap-a-gap" it works well on both pewter and plastic models, and unlike plastic glue it doesn't melt the plastic together in case you wanted to take it apart for another model. Most people however will use a plastic glue (for plastic models of course) and a super glue (for pewter models). For basing the model, once I put the larger things like rocks etc. I use a weaker glue like Elmer's school glue on an old paint brush and coat whatever I wanted based in the glue. Then I put the model in the basing material (modeling grass, dirt, sand, etc) and gently blow the extra off. Hope that helps

Where is the raditor drain plug on a 2000 chev s10?

The drain valve will be located on the bottom of the radiator, on one side or the other. It's a little plastic tab. If you need to drain the radiator, pull the lower hose if you're not replacing the radiator so that you don't take the chance on breaking that stupid plastic drain valve.
