Product Information

Full details

The FloPlast 110mm double-socket ring seal coupling is an essential component for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts working on soil and vent pipe systems. It provides a secure, leak-proof connection for plain-ended pipes, offering the versatility to be converted into a slip coupling for easier installation in tight areas, though users should note it requires proper lubrication to ensure a smooth, lasting seal.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this coupling compatible with other brands of soil pipe?

Yes, it is designed to be compatible with most standard British and European 110mm soil and vent pipe systems.

Do I need special tools to remove the central lugs?

The lugs are designed for easy removal, typically requiring only a standard set of pliers or a small hand tool.

Can this be used for underground drainage?

This product is specifically designed for soil and vent systems. Please check local building regulations regarding the specific material requirements for underground drainage versus soil stacks.

Why is it necessary to withdraw the pipe after insertion?

Withdrawing the pipe slightly creates a small expansion gap, which prevents the system from buckling or cracking due to thermal expansion and contraction.

What type of lubricant should I use?

Always use a dedicated silicone-based pipe lubricant to ensure the seal remains intact and the pipe slides in easily.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty inserting pipe into socket

Ensure the pipe end is properly chamfered and verify that enough silicone lubricant has been applied to the seal.

Joint leaking after installation

Check that the pipe is inserted square to the fitting and ensure the rubber seal is not pinched or displaced.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simple push-fit installation reduces labor time
  • Convertible design allows for slip-coupling functionality
  • Compatible with a wide range of industry-standard pipe systems
  • Provides a reliable, durable ring-seal connection

Cons

  • Requires specific silicone lubricant for correct installation
  • Pipe ends must be chamfered for successful insertion
  • Not suitable for pressure-rated piping systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure all pipe ends are cut square and filed to create a chamfer, which prevents damage to the internal seals. Clean the pipe exterior and the coupling socket thoroughly. Apply a high-quality silicone lubricant to both the pipe end and the rubber seal. Push the pipe squarely into the socket until it seats firmly. Finally, withdraw the pipe by approximately 10mm to allow for thermal expansion within the system. Regular checks of the joints are recommended to ensure seals remain clear of debris.
