Online supplier of metric pipe?

I need some 40mm PVC fittings to mod a Deltec skimmer but I can't find them anywhere. Anyone know where I can find them?

Thanks for the highly intelligent reply there, Keelay, but I searched google many times. That is why I am asking here, in hopes that someone has found a company that carries it

You like my intelligence? Your right, I didn't think it would be that hard to find a company selling metric PVC sizes. But I did a few searches myself and it isn't an easy find. I apologize for assuming that you hadn't already done your homework on this one. Good luck. If you don't end up finding anything this might help:

This will map the closest standard pipe size with the metric equivalent. Sometimes they are closer than others so you might get lucky.
