There are two options.....1 1/2" sch 40 or 1 1/4" sch 40.....I used ideas from PPG and saute86 to make mine.....I took my seat pole with me to Lowe's to check out the fit for snugness....the 1 1/4" was more snug so I went with that...after completion I tried it out and it would not slide over the pole.....dummy me had not allowed for the pipe taking up more space inside the 1 1/4" "T".....so, I had to cut out the middle section and it still works fine....I also did not glue the cap on....it gives me the option to modify it later if I wish.....mine was made for an 8 ft. dia. "Sportsbrella" I got at Sams......thanks PPG & saute86 for the help....
