LF : 5/8" pvc pipe
 
Anyone no where I can pick up some 5/8" pvc piping for my return in YYC , can seem to find any

As far as I'm aware, it doesn't exist. You might have some luck with a plumbing supplier such as Noble, Corix, Emco or Bartle & Gibson.

No such thing as far as I know

for hard piping there is no 5/8" inside dimension. They go with 1/2", 3/4" , 1", 1-1/4" and so on. It goes 1/4" different in size only.

Why do you need 5/8 anyway?

NPS size is based off nominal bore which essentially means the specified pipe size has little to do with the actual dimensions except for sizes over 12" when the NPS is = to the OD.

At any rate I assume the OP is looking for 1/2" and just unfamiliar with the term nominal bore. 1/2" pvc has an OD of about 5/8".

Hey guys that's for the help , it's for my return on my 10gal I have a hydro nano pump , but I think I'm going to just pick up a mag drive pump so I can move up to 1/2" piping so there less struggle finding parts
