I have a few sections of Stainless steel double wall class A chimney pipe I need to use to re-plumb my chimney liner with my woodstove's new location. There are no stamped markings on any of the pieces and just a couple had labels but where all heavily disintegrated. I was able to make out a symbol which was a bold "M" with a "V" with it. I've seen this before online but can't remember. I thought it would be Metalbestos but the way the pieces connect seems different from Metalbestos piping. Does anybody know what manufacture these are from? I need another adapter to connect to black pipe.
 
Pictures of both ends might help us narrow it down.
 
Not nearly enough information here to be of any help. What are you trying to connect to what? When you say "plumb the chimney liner", exactly what are talking about?
 
Pictures are your only hope for an accurate I'd. Maybe you have the remnants of Ameri-Vent?
 
By plumb I mean route. I am moving the wood stove from my first floor fireplace to my basement. I am using some class A double wall piping I kept that was used on my old oil furnace's power vent that has been removed for sometime. That will run through a joist shield/fire stop to make it through the ceiling/first floor and into my existing SS liner. Here are the pictures. The female end has these locking tabs around it and then you just slip this riveted ring around the connection once you have jointed the male end in.

That looks similar to the pipe I had on my cabin when I bought it, I needed to extend it up 24" for code and it was an adventure to find the right pieces. Mine was old Hart and Cooley pipe, the tabs locked in and there was a ring that slide over it. I had to buy an adapter to go to their new TLC piping since they stuff I had wasn't made anymore. The adapter was 8TD=TLCA and the customer service was great, I emailed them pics and they sent me the part numbers and the name and # of a contact in my area. I attached a few pics probbaly not the best but it looks very similar. The customer service number and website is below, hope that helps. Good Luck!

If you have any local stores like Lowes or Menards they carry Selkirk Super-vent. The adaptor is the same as the TLC adaptor. It's the same company.
 
Thanks webby3650 I did checkout that super-vent adapter and it was a perfect fit (kinda tighter/more solid than the stock one I have for the other end). Worked out very well. Even used a super-vent bracket to hold the weight well. My Lopi Freedom lives on.

Thanks again guys.
