This guide is for builders, plumbers, and DIY enthusiasts working with underground drainage systems. The PBSL Group 45-degree drainage bend offers a reliable solution for altering the direction of 160mm pipes. A potential caveat is the need for lubricant for optimal installation. Key features include a single socket push-fit design with a captive rubber seal, and a 45-degree angle suitable for specific drainage configurations.

The captive rubber seal ensures a watertight and secure connection between the spigot and the socket, preventing leaks and infiltration.
Silicon lubricant makes the push-fit installation easier and helps to maintain and enhance the long-term performance of the rubber seal.
While primarily designed for underground use, its functionality is the same. However, ensure protection from UV exposure if used above ground.
It refers to the angle of the bend, which changes the direction of the drainage pipe by 45 degrees.
The spigot end should be installed in the direction of the water flow within the drainage system.
It is designed to be compatible with other 160mm PBSL Group underground drainage products and similar push-fit systems. Always check specific compatibility if using with other brands.
Ensure both the spigot and the inside of the socket are clean and free from debris. Apply more silicon lubricant to the spigot.
Verify that the spigot is fully inserted into the socket and the captive seal is correctly seated. If the issue persists, the seal may be damaged, and the fitting may need to be replaced.
Push firmly until the spigot is fully home in the socket. Ensure no obstructions are preventing a full connection.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This bend is designed for 160mm diameter underground drainage systems. It is compatible with other PBSL Group underground drainage components and similar push-fit systems of the same diameter.
Care:
While designed for underground use and minimal maintenance, periodically check accessible joints for any signs of leakage or damage. Ensure surrounding soil compaction does not place undue stress on the system.
