Hi, I had a pipe under my kitchen sink rust and crack. I bought PVC pipe to replace and as I was removing the piece of pipe that is long and that goes into the floor, it broke off right near the pipe coming through the floor. I can not budge it, I have sprayed WD40 and still no movement. How can I get the pipe out so I can finish? Thanks

This pipe fits into and is not threaded into a pipe that comes up through my floor. It is a metal pipe and appears to be just "stuck" for lack of a better term. All the other pipes were rusted and I removed them. This one however I can't seem to remove. I tried WD40, but it didn't help. I am unable to post pictures, my camera is broken. Sorry wish I could be of better help.

The pipe is not held by any connections, it just fits down into the pipe, it goes through the bottom of my cabinet into the floor. I am unsure what material the pipe is made of, it is a metal, it's not cooper.

It's very hard to visualize you piping. Sounds like you have a "S" trap. What's under the kitchen floor, do you have a basement or a crawl space. How about putting up a drawing of you piping. Is the piping going through the floor a bright shinny chrome or a dull silver pipe?

I finally cut the pipe at the level of the other pipe added an adapter and it is now working. Thanks for your help
