Once I found thinwall, "Schedule 21" was all I could find and the markings are "SDR21" and "ASTM D 2241". I think it's a wee bit thicker than 26 since the 2 liter caps only go about halfway in but it seems to work with a generous amount of glue to seal the cap "ridges". I'm using 1 inch pipe, btw.

My thinwall that I got at menards is a bit tight but after a soak in boiling water the caps would go in and be very tight. Hope this helps anyone else.

PS I found out after buy a 10 ft section of the thin wall from Home Depot that their thin wall is the correct size. The bottle cap is a nice press fit.
