FAQs

What is the primary use of the Polypipe UG407 bend?

The Polypipe UG407 is primarily used for underground gravity drainage and sewerage applications, specifically to create an 11.25-degree change in direction of a drainage run.

What type of joint does this fitting use?

It uses a push-fit joint system with an integrated seal and snap-cap for secure and straightforward installation.

What standards does this product meet?

The fitting is certified to BS EN 1401 and BS4660:2000 standards.

Can this fitting be used for above-ground drainage?

While made of durable PVCu, it is specifically designed and certified for underground gravity drainage systems. Its terracotta color is also typical for underground applications.

What material is the bend made from?

The bend is manufactured from durable PVCu (Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride).

What is the angle of the bend?

The bend provides a precise 11.25-degree angle.

Is this a solvent-weld fitting?

No, this is a push-fit fitting. It does not require solvent cement for jointing.

Troubleshooting

Leak at the joint

Ensure the pipe end was fully inserted into the socket and the seal is correctly seated. Check for damage to the pipe end or the fitting's seal. Re-lubricate and re-seat if necessary. Verify pipe is cut square.

Difficulty inserting pipe

Confirm you are using a 110mm pipe compatible with BS EN 1401/BS4660. Ensure the pipe end and the fitting's seal are clean and lubricated with a water-based lubricant. Do not force the connection.

Fitting cracked or damaged

Inspect the fitting for visible damage before installation. If damage is found, do not use the fitting and replace it. If damage occurs during installation, stop and replace the component.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy and fast push-fit installation saves time and labor.
  • PVCu material offers excellent durability and resistance to ground conditions.
  • Certified to relevant British Standards for assured performance.
  • Provides a precise 11.25-degree bend for specific drainage layouts.
  • Cost-effective alternative to traditional clay drainage components.

Cons

  • The fixed 11.25-degree angle may not suit all system requirements.
  • Primarily suited for underground gravity systems, less versatile for pressure applications.
  • Requires clean and properly prepared pipe ends for secure jointing.
  • Terracotta color may not blend aesthetically with all above-ground installations (though intended for underground use).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the ends of the pipes to be joined are clean, free from dirt, and cut square. Push the pipe end firmly into the socket of the UG407 bend until it is fully seated. The integrated seal and snap-cap system ensures a watertight connection. For best results, lubricate the pipe end and the seal with a water-based lubricant.

Compatibility: This 110mm fitting is designed to connect with other 110mm drainage pipes and fittings conforming to BS EN 1401 and BS4660 standards. It is suitable for use in underground gravity drainage and sewerage systems.

Care: As this fitting is installed underground, routine care is minimal. Periodically inspect the drainage system for signs of blockage or damage. Ensure the connection points remain secure. No specific maintenance is required for the fitting itself beyond ensuring a proper initial installation.
