Troubleshooting

Leak at the connection point

Ensure both pipes are fully inserted into the connector and seated correctly against the gasket. Check the gasket for damage or debris. Verify that the pipe ends are clean and smooth.

Connector is difficult to slide onto pipes

Ensure the pipe ends are clean and free of burrs or obstructions. Slightly chamfering the edge of the plastic pipe can aid insertion. Confirm you are using the correct 50mm connector for the specified pipe sizes.

Connector shows signs of degradation after installation

Verify that the product is suitable for the specific chemical composition of the fluid being transported. Ensure the operating temperature stays within the product's specified limits. Contact manufacturer support if degradation is noted under normal operating conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Ensure both the cast iron/clay pipe and the plastic pipe are clean and free of debris.
If connecting to a cast iron pipe, ensure the end is smooth and prepared for a fitting. For clay pipes, ensure the end is intact.
Slide the gasket onto the designated end of the connector if it is not pre-installed.
Firmly push the cast iron or clay pipe into one end of the connector, ensuring it seats properly against the gasket.
Slide the plastic pipe into the other end of the connector, ensuring it is fully inserted and creates a tight seal with the gasket.
For added security, especially in buried applications, consider using appropriate pipe clamps or couplings according to local plumbing codes, though the gasket provides the primary seal.

Compatibility:

Designed specifically for connecting 50mm diameter pipes.
Compatible with standard cast iron pipes.
Compatible with standard clay pipes.
Compatible with standard plastic (e.g., PVC, ABS) drainage and sewage pipes.
Not intended for pressurized water lines; suitable for gravity-fed drainage and sewage systems.

Care:

This product is designed for underground or in-wall installation and requires minimal routine care.
Avoid exposing the connector to excessive external force or impact.
If access is possible and suspected issues arise, check the connection points for any signs of leakage or damage. However, due to its robust nature, intervention is rarely needed.
