I am trying to use a sump pump in a 1200 litre rainwater storage "tote". I have a Red Lion Pump which is slightly too wide to pass through the opening in the top of the container. So I am thinking of using a stand-pipe affixed to the 3" inlet in the pump. ( Like a large version of a drinking straw in a glass of water). I need a 3" Interior dimension abs fitting which I can cement to the 3" ABS inlet port on the pump. Then to a threaded collar, which I can screw the sand pipe in to the fittings which are attached to the pump. Something like a double ended socket with 3"ID in ABS. I see that most of the sizing for ABS is in whole numbers for outside dimensions. What can you suggest that will be usable?
