Hi... Probably a dumb question, I've been at this all day & not thinking clearly. I'm trying to tie a kitchen sink trap into an existing drain & just wanted to know if the pic below is legal, code-wise, or would it leak? It would drain from left to right & tie in with the abs fitting.

I don't remember whether that pipe, cut at both ends would work or if I need to get one with a flange on the inlet.

Yes it came as part of a disposal kit. I ended up cutting both ends of that one piece by mistake. I actually do have that middle piece in Terry's pic -- that's the not thinking clearly part...

I guess it was a general question -- can you cut both ends of a pipe (to use with slip joints) or is it really only meant to be at the outlet?
