The Wavin OsmaSoil S/S boss adaptor (ring-seal) in black is designed for plumbing professionals and DIY enthusiasts undertaking sanitary waste removal systems. Its key benefit is providing a secure and reliable connection for 32mm plastic or copper waste pipes to the Wavin OsmaSoil system. A potential caveat is ensuring compatibility with specific pipe types and the correct application of solvent weld or push-fit jointing methods.

This adaptor is designed to connect 32mm plastic pipes conforming to BS EN 1451-1/1455-1/566-1 and copper pipes manufactured to BS 659 or BS 2871.
While the adaptor itself features a ring-seal (push-fit) socket, it is part of a PVC-U system where solvent weld joints are common for other connections. Ensure you use the correct solvent cement and primer for PVC-U if that method is required for the specific installation.
'S/S' typically refers to 'Single Socket', indicating it has one opening for connecting a pipe.
No, this adaptor is specifically manufactured for 32mm pipes and will not provide a secure or compliant connection for other sizes.
The integral fall ensures that wastewater flows efficiently through gravity, helping to prevent blockages and maintain system performance.
The Wavin OsmaSoil system is designed for sanitary waste removal, which operates under gravity flow, not high pressure. It is not intended for pressurized water systems.
The PVC-U material is durable. For routine cleaning, a damp cloth is sufficient. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the surface.
Check that the pipe is fully inserted into the socket. Ensure the ring-seal is correctly seated and undamaged. If using solvent weld, confirm proper application of primer and cement.
Ensure the pipe end and the inside of the socket are clean and free of obstructions. A small amount of silicone lubricant can aid insertion, but avoid petroleum-based lubricants.
Verify that the pipe is inserted to the correct depth. For push-fit systems, the internal ring provides the seal and retention; ensure it is not obstructed or damaged.
Setup: Ensure the ends of both the pipe to be connected and the socket on the Wavin OsmaSoil fitting are clean, dry, and free from debris. For push-fit connections, simply push the pipe firmly into the boss adaptor's socket until it is fully seated. If using solvent weld, ensure the appropriate solvent cement and primer are used as per manufacturer instructions for PVC-U.
Compatibility: This adaptor is specifically designed to connect 32mm plastic pipe (BS EN 1451-1/1455-1/566-1) and copper pipe (BS 659 or BS 2871) to the Wavin OsmaSoil system. Always verify that the pipes you are connecting meet these standards. It is intended for use with other Wavin OsmaSoil fittings.
Care: The PVC-U material is low maintenance. Clean the exterior of the adaptor with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents on the exterior, as this could damage the finish. Ensure connections remain secure to prevent leaks.
