FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the double socket access bend?

The primary purpose is to create a 92-degree change in direction in a 110mm soil pipe while providing a convenient access point for inspection and clearing of blockages.

What material is this fitting made from?

The fitting is made from PVC-U (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride), a durable and corrosion-resistant plastic commonly used for drainage systems.

What standards does this product meet?

It meets EN1329-1 and EN1566-1 standards, which relate to PVC pipes and fittings for soil, waste, and drainpipe systems.

Can this fitting be used for rainwater pipes?

While it is primarily designed for soil and waste systems, it can typically be used for rainwater systems as long as the pipe size and material compatibility are correct.

How is the access port sealed?

The access port is sealed with a threaded cap, which should be tightened securely after any inspection or clearing work is completed.

What is the recommended method for joining this fitting to pipes?

It is recommended to use a solvent cement specifically designed for PVC-U pipes and fittings. Ensure proper application and curing times.

Is this fitting suitable for underground use?

Yes, PVC-U is suitable for underground use in soil and waste drainage systems when installed correctly according to local building regulations and best practices.

Troubleshooting

Leak at the joint

Ensure the pipe was fully inserted into the socket and that sufficient solvent cement was applied and allowed to cure properly. Re-joint if necessary, ensuring proper surface preparation and application.

Difficulty inserting pipe

Check for any obstructions or damage inside the socket or on the pipe end. Ensure both components are clean and free from burrs. Lightly chamfer the pipe end if needed.

Access cap is difficult to remove or seal

Clean the threads of the access cap and the fitting. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the threads if necessary. Ensure the cap is screwed on straight and tightened appropriately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure all pipe ends are clean and free of debris.
  2. Apply solvent cement specifically designed for PVC-U to the outside of the pipe and the inside of the socket.
  3. Insert the pipe into the socket with a slight twisting motion to ensure even distribution of the cement.
  4. Hold the joint for a short period to allow the cement to set.
