Again wouldn't put you if trying to change it? The trap was leaking rubber had perised. Can feel water on the threads of the bath waste though so is slightly leaking. there is movement in the waste i.e it will undo. Just worried they have put so much silicone on for a reason...A sharp Stanley knife blade will cut through the silicone, on underside of bath around the wastes thread.
Once the large nut is removed off the waste ,the waste should push upward and off the bath.
The remaining silicone shouldn't be too difficult to peel off.
50mm trap will be more than ok, 75mm more for a basin/sink. Shallow bath trap only if it's a hopper/grate.75mm seal trap
Looks like it - the shallow traps have a 19mm seal, measured from the bottom of the outflow section to the top of the bend.The trap that is on is shallow 20mm seal?
That is 50mm seal?You may struggle to get a 50mm trap with an anti vac in there, never mind a 75mm, the anti vac valve is on the top of the outlet so can foul on the underside of the bath unless the trap outlet comes out to the side
