Product Information

Full details

The Primaflow 32mm Compression Waste Straight Connector is an essential plumbing component designed for both DIY enthusiasts and professional plumbers who need a reliable way to join two lengths of waste pipe end-to-end. Its primary benefit is the quick, tool-assisted installation that eliminates the need for messy solvent welding, ensuring a leak-free seal through a simple nut-and-olive mechanism. While it offers excellent durability and ease of use, it is important to note that it is specifically engineered for 32mm waste pipes and should not be used for high-pressure water supply lines.

FAQs

Does this connector require pipe glue or solvent?

No, this is a mechanical compression fitting and does not require any solvents or chemical adhesives.

Can I use this for my kitchen cold water supply?

No, this connector is designed specifically for gravity-fed waste drainage systems and is not rated for high-pressure supply lines.

What is the diameter requirement for the pipe?

This connector is designed specifically for 32mm outer diameter waste pipes.

Can I take this apart after it has been installed?

Yes, unlike solvent-welded joints, you can unscrew the compression nuts to disassemble or adjust the pipework as needed.

Are the dimensions compact enough for under-sink cabinets?

Yes, at 7cm in height, the unit is compact enough for most standard under-sink installations.

What standards do these pipes need to meet?

The connector is compatible with pipes meeting BS1455 and BS1452 standards.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking from the connection

Ensure the pipe is pushed fully into the fitting and the olive is seated correctly; tighten the compression nut slightly further.

Nut is difficult to tighten

Check that the threads are aligned and not cross-threaded; ensure the olive is not jammed or tilted inside the housing.

Pipe slides out of the connector

Verify that the pipe is indeed 32mm; if it is, ensure the olive was correctly placed on the pipe before tightening the nut.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • No solvent welding required for installation
  • Reliable, leak-resistant compression seal
  • Suitable for both professional and DIY plumbing projects
  • Compatible with standard BS1455 and BS1452 pipework
  • Easy to disassemble if future maintenance is required

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-pressure water supply piping
  • Requires access to tighten nuts manually
  • Only compatible with specific 32mm outer diameter waste pipe

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your 32mm waste pipe ends are cut square and are free from burrs or sharp plastic shards. Slide the compression nut and the olive onto each pipe end, then insert the pipes into the connector body. Tighten the nuts by hand until firm, then apply a final turn with a wrench to compress the olive fully. This product is strictly compatible with 32mm pipes adhering to BS1455/BS1452 standards. For care, avoid over-tightening the nuts as this can cause the plastic threads to strip. Periodically check the joints after the first few weeks of use for any signs of dampness, particularly after heavy sink usage.
