Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the main benefit of the 92.5-degree angle?

The 92.5-degree angle creates a slight fall in the pipe, promoting a self-cleansing flow that helps prevent waste build-up and blockages.

Is this product suitable for underground drainage?

Yes, it is suitable for soil and waste pipe systems, including connections to underground drainage, provided the entire system is compatible.

How do I connect the pipes using the double socket?

The double socket features ring seals (push-fit). Simply lubricate the seal and the pipe end, then push the pipe firmly into the socket until fully seated.

Does the cast iron effect finish require special maintenance?

No, the cast iron effect is achieved with a specially formulated paint on PVC. It requires minimal maintenance, similar to standard PVC – typically just cleaning with a damp cloth.

What is the warranty period for the colour?

The product comes with a 20-year colour guarantee.

Can I use solvent cement with this pipe fitting?

No, this is a ring seal (push-fit) fitting designed for mechanical jointing. Solvent cement is not required or recommended.

What size pipes does this bend connect to?

This bend is designed for 110mm diameter PVC soil and waste pipes.

Troubleshooting

Leaking joint

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the socket and the ring seal is correctly seated and undamaged. Check for debris in the socket or on the pipe spigot.

Difficulty pushing pipe into socket

Apply more silicone lubricant to the ring seal and pipe spigot. Ensure the pipe is aligned straight and not at an angle.

Inconsistent flow or blockages

Verify that the 92.5-degree angle is correctly oriented to provide the intended fall. Ensure no obstructions are present within the pipe system.

Finish discoloration

While designed for durability, extreme UV exposure can affect finishes over time. Ensure the product is installed as per manufacturer guidelines. Contact FloPlast if discoloration exceeds the 20-year guarantee.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the ends of both the existing pipe and the bend are clean and free from debris.
  2. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the rubber ring seal on the socket of the bend and the spigot end of the pipe.
  3. Firmly push the pipe into the socket of the bend until it is fully inserted to the depth mark on the socket.
  4. Repeat for the other end of the bend if connecting to another pipe.

Compatibility:

  • This 110mm bend is designed for use with other 110mm PVC (uPVC) soil and waste pipes.
  • It is compatible with FloPlast's range of cast iron effect soil and gutter products.
  • Ensure any connecting pipes are also ring seal (push-fit) or compatible with this jointing method.

Care:

  • The PVC material is low maintenance. Clean exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent as needed.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or material.
  • Periodically check connections for security, especially after significant ground movement or extreme temperature fluctuations.
