I need help. Can anyone help me identify this type of connection currently used under my bathroom sink? All I can find are threaded pipe connections. Unfortunately my wall connection is this same type of twist/lock connector. Any help you can provide that will help me locate replacement parts that utilize this type of connector would be greatly appreciated.

2Some company designer had fun one day so people would be locked into their products. Can you see a company name on that pipe? Your general location might help also, since those pipes might be in a local region.– crip659Commented Oct 5, 2023 at 14:37

1Says "Bayonet™" molded in the upper left of the picture. I'd rip it out until I hit normal pipe and replace with normal slip-joint drain fittings, most likely.– EcnerwalCommented Oct 5, 2023 at 14:46

Your local plumbing shops should be able to help also, unlikely you are the only local to have that type.– crip659Commented Oct 5, 2023 at 14:47

1If you'll take the tour, you'll note the proper way of saying "thanks" is to up vote any/all answers that help you and click the check mark on the one that helped you the most.– FreeManCommented Oct 5, 2023 at 15:08

Apparently it's this https://www.jb-products.com/product/bayonet-p-traps-pvc/
I'd cut the oddball thing out, unless you actually find it in stock at a local hardware store.
While it connects to PVC, you can see from the text around the name that, like most white plastic traps that are not glued, it's polypropylene (PP) except for the bit that glues to the PVC pipe.

OP's problem may be if the elbow with the respective locking ring is glued to the wall stub. But still hopefully not an insurmountable issue.– HuesmannCommented Oct 6, 2023 at 13:26
