 At most plumbing shops or supply houses.  If your trap and stand pipe is 2" ask for a 2 X 1 1/2" female slip compression fitting.  Good luck,  Tom

My pipe is 1 1/2".   What size should I ask for?  Can I buy one at Lowe's or Home Depot?

Ask for a female slip 1 1/2" compression fitting.  If the big box stores don't carry them go to a plumbing shop or supply house and take the picture with you.

Tom,
 
 Exactly how does the hose from the washing machine fit in to the compression fitting?  I bought a compression fitting today but when I put the hose from the washing machine in to it, it's not tight.  The supply house gave me 3 different rubber washers but none are tight.  Am I doing something worng or do I need a tighter washer

The gasket should fit snug around the hose to be effective.
