The PBSL Group Land Drain Multi Y Junction is an ideal solution for contractors and DIY landscapers needing to create branched drainage systems for agricultural or residential land. This versatile connector serves as a primary tool for joining land drain pipes, with the key benefit of universal sizing compatibility that allows a single unit to accommodate 60mm, 80mm, and 100mm pipe diameters. While the push-fit design simplifies the assembly process, users should note that custom-fitting these junctions requires precise manual trimming of the outlets to match the specific pipe diameter being used.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Do I need glue to secure these joints?
No, these are push-fit connectors designed to hold securely through the friction of the corrugated pipe ribs.
Can I use these for pressurized plumbing pipes?
No, these junctions are strictly for non-pressurized land drainage systems.
What tools are required for installation?
A standard handsaw or hacksaw to trim the outlets to size is the only tool typically required.
What should I do if I accidentally cut the junction too large?
Unfortunately, the plastic cannot be repaired once cut too large. Use a new junction and ensure the cut is aligned strictly with the smallest marker first.
Is this product compatible with smooth-walled pipes?
These are designed specifically for standard corrugated land drainage pipes.
Troubleshooting
The pipe does not fit securely after trimming.
You may have trimmed beyond the intended marking. Ensure the cut line is accurate and that no excess plastic is preventing the pipe from seating correctly.
Difficulty pushing the pipe onto the junction.
Ensure the pipe end is cut square and is free from dirt or grit. Applying a small amount of lubricant can help if the plastic is cold and rigid.
Water leakage at the junction.
Land drainage systems are designed for gravity flow, not pressure. If you are experiencing excessive water escape, ensure the pipe is fully inserted past the junction ribs and the soil around it is properly backfilled.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Determine the diameter of your corrugated land drain pipe (60mm, 80mm, or 100mm).
Trimming: Identify the correct cut line on the junction. Using a standard handsaw, carefully trim the connector along the molded guideline for your specific pipe size. Ensure the cut is clean and free of jagged plastic burrs.
Connection: Push the drainage pipe firmly onto the junction outlet. The connection should be tight; you may need to rotate the pipe slightly while pushing to seat it properly.
Maintenance: Periodically check that drainage outlets remain clear of debris. Because these are underground, verify that the area above the junction is not subject to extreme heavy traffic, which could compress the piping.
