    How do I connect 3 inch sch 40 to 3 inch copper . The o. d. of the copper is 3 inch
    I am remodeling an old house with all copper plumbing except for the cast iron that comes out of the basement floor. Some of the copper drain line is bad so I am trying to connect to the copper with sch 40 3 inch pipe. I can't seem to find a no hub band to make the connection. The o.d. of the copper is 3 inch.
