A 30-degree drainage bend is used to create a gradual change in direction for underground drainage pipes, typically in horizontal runs, allowing for smooth flow and avoiding sharp turns that can cause blockages.
A watertight seal is achieved by ensuring the pipe end is clean, the rubber seal is lubricated with silicon lubricant, and the pipe is pushed firmly and squarely into the socket until fully seated.
No, this FloPlast drainage bend features a push-fit design with a rubber seal and is not designed for use with solvent cement. Use only the specified push-fit connection method.
This drainage bend has a diameter of 110mm, which is a standard size for most underground drainage and sewer applications.
While not strictly mandatory, using silicon lubricant is highly recommended. It makes installation easier, prevents damage to the rubber seal during insertion, and helps maintain the seal's performance and longevity over time.
A single socket bend has one end with a socket for connecting to a pipe spigot. A double socket bend has two sockets, allowing for connections at both ends without needing separate couplings or fittings.
Yes, this 110mm drainage bend is suitable for both underground rainwater drainage and soil pipe systems, provided the connections are made correctly.
Ensure the pipe end and the rubber seal are adequately lubricated with silicon lubricant. Check for any obstructions inside the socket or on the pipe spigot. Verify that the pipe is correctly aligned and not at an awkward angle.
The pipe may not have been fully inserted. Gently pull the pipe out slightly and re-insert it firmly. Check the rubber seal for damage or debris and clean if necessary. Ensure the connecting pipe is not stressed or misaligned.
Confirm that the rubber seal is correctly seated within its recess in the socket. Ensure the spigot of the connecting pipe is clean and free of damage. Re-apply lubricant and ensure a firm, straight push to engage the seal.
