Long time reader and have found many great solutions on this site.This time I am really stuck and have to ask for some help.
I am building a 4" pvc stack for a toilet, and I am connecting to an existing 4" cast iron pipe protruding from the foundation wall. Before I was aware that there is rubber donut(aka a ty seal) that can be pushed into the cast iron and accepts pvc, I was told that I need to cut off the bell end of the cast iron and use a 4"x4" banded gasket. Well I cut off what I thought was the bell end of the pipe, but really only the lip of the bell. Only about half of the whole bell protrudes from the wall, so I can't cut the whole bell end off.
My question is, can I still use the rubber hub even without the whole bell end? attached is a picture of the hub adapter I am considering using, and the other is my bon-doogle of a situation, showing what was cut off.
Any suggestions on how best to tackle this would be greatly appreciated.
