This is kind of a stupid question, but I was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy five inch pvc? I want it for my next project, I'm planning a big one, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Any help is appreciated

Check out the guy from SureShot. I think they use 5" pipe.

They do, but they don't say where they get it

Do you specifically need 5" pipe, or would 4"/6" pipe work? I will tell you with certainty 5" pvc plumbing is rare. I live in the desert so we have a lot of plumbing stores locally and I've never seen 5" pvc. In terms of moving water if 4" piping just isn't enough, 6" the next option.

If you insist be sure and call all the local plumbing shops first, don't go to Home Depot and Lowe's.

Searched around a little bit, and I only found plumbingsupply.com. Which only has 5" fittings, short nipples, and no pipe that I can tell.

If you got a cool concept that absolutely requires 5" pvc pipe, spill the beans and you might peak the troughed inclination.
