FAQs

What materials are the couplings made from?

The couplings are made from EPDM Rubber with Stainless Steel grade 308 clamps.

What standards do the couplings conform to?

They conform to standard EN295-4 and BS EN685.

How do I determine the correct size of coupling?

Measure the outside diameters of the pipes you are connecting. Select a coupling size that matches these dimensions.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a nut driver and a torque wrench.

Can these couplings be used for all types of pipes?

The couplings are designed for connecting unadopted drainage pipes of different materials, but ensure the coupling size matches the pipe dimensions.

How do I ensure a watertight seal?

Tighten the clamps evenly to the recommended torque specification.

How long will the coupling last?

The Flexseal AC6000 Adaptor Coupling is designed for long-term use, provided it is installed and maintained correctly.

Where can I find the torque specifications?

Torque specifications are usually provided in the product documentation or on the packaging. Consult the manufacturer's guidelines for specific recommendations.

Troubleshooting

Leakage at the connection point.

Check the torque of the clamps. Tighten the clamps evenly to the recommended torque specification. Ensure that the coupling is correctly positioned over the pipe ends.

Difficulty in fitting the coupling.

Ensure the pipe ends are clean and free of any obstructions. Lubricate the pipe ends and the inside of the coupling with a suitable lubricant to ease installation.

Clamp corrosion.

Inspect clamps for any signs of corrosion. Replace clamps as necessary to maintain the integrity of the seal.
