FAQs

What type of pipe is this clip compatible with?

This clip is specifically designed for 40mm ABS pipes that use solvent weld jointing.

Can I use this clip with PVC pipes?

No, this clip is only compatible with ABS solvent weld pipes. Using it with other materials like PVC may result in an insecure fit or damage.

Does the clip come with screws for mounting?

The product information does not specify if mounting screws are included. Typically, pipe clips are supplied without fixings, allowing users to select appropriate screws for their mounting surface.

What is the purpose of BioCote® anti-microbial technology?

BioCote® technology helps to inhibit the growth of mold and bacteria on the surface of the clip, contributing to a more hygienic environment.

How often should I check the pipe clips?

Regular visual inspections of your waste system are recommended. Check that the clips are still securely holding the pipes and that there are no signs of damage or wear.

Can this clip be used for hot water waste pipes?

This clip is designed for waste water systems, which are typically at ambient or slightly elevated temperatures. It is not rated for high-temperature applications like hot water supply lines.

What is the warranty period for this pipe clip?

The product information does not specify a warranty period. Please refer to the retailer or Polypipe for warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Pipe not securely held by the clip

Ensure the clip is correctly sized for 40mm pipe and that it is firmly fixed to the mounting surface. Check if the pipe itself has deformed.

Clip appears to be deteriorating

Verify that only ABS solvent weld pipes are being used with this clip. Exposure to incompatible materials or excessive heat could cause degradation. Replace if significantly damaged.

Difficulty inserting pipe into a fitting (related to clip placement)

Ensure adequate clearance is provided for the solvent weld jointing process before securing the pipe with the clip. The clip should not impede the initial joining of pipes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

To set up the WS34B pipe clip, first ensure you have the correct 40mm ABS solvent weld pipe and associated solvent cement. Apply solvent cement to both the pipe and the inside of the fitting where they will join, following the cement manufacturer's instructions. Then, push the pipe firmly into the fitting with a slight twisting motion. Hold for a few seconds to ensure a strong bond. Once the joint is made, position the pipe run and secure it using the Polypipe WS34B clip at appropriate intervals as per plumbing best practices and building regulations. The clip typically requires screws or appropriate fixings (not supplied) to attach it to the wall or joist.

Compatibility:

This pipe clip is specifically designed for use with 40mm diameter ABS pipes that utilize solvent weld jointing. It is part of the Polypipe Waste Systems range and is compatible with other components within this range, such as traps and overflow solutions. It is *not* compatible with uPVC pipes, push-fit systems, or pipes of different diameters.

Care:

The Polypipe WS34B pipe clip requires minimal maintenance. Its ABS construction is inherently resistant to corrosion and most common household chemicals found in waste water. To clean, simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the plastic. Ensure the pipework secured by the clip remains free from blockages to maintain optimal system performance.
