Product Information

Full details

The Wavin OsmaSoil D/S tight radius bend is designed for plumbers and builders needing a reliable 87.5° bend for soil and vent systems. Its key benefit is the captive seal technology, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection and simplifying installation. A potential caveat is that it's part of a specific system, requiring compatibility with other Wavin Osma components.

FAQs

What does 'D/S' mean in the product name?

D/S typically refers to 'Double Socket', meaning the fitting has sockets on both ends designed to receive pipes.

What is the main advantage of captive seal technology?

Captive seal technology ensures that the rubber seal within the fitting cannot become dislodged during the installation process, leading to a more secure and reliable joint.

Is this bend suitable for underground drainage?

Yes, the Wavin OsmaSoil range, including this bend, is suitable for both underground and above-ground soil and vent applications, provided it is installed correctly.

Can I use this bend with pipes from a different manufacturer?

While it is a standard 110mm size, for guaranteed performance and to maintain warranties, it is recommended to use this fitting with other Wavin OsmaSoil 110mm system components.

What is the significance of the Kitemark to BS EN 1329-1:2000?

The Kitemark certification indicates that the product has been independently tested and certified to meet the rigorous quality and safety standards set out in the relevant British and European standard for plastic piping systems for soil and waste.

How tight is the 'tight radius' bend?

An 87.5° bend offers a very tight turning radius, allowing for significant changes in direction within a minimal horizontal or vertical space compared to standard 90° bends.

Troubleshooting

Leaking joint

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the socket and that the captive seal is correctly seated. Check for debris in the socket or on the pipe spigot. Re-lubricate and re-insert if necessary.

Difficulty pushing pipe into socket

Confirm that you are using the correct diameter pipe (110mm) and that it is compatible with the Wavin Osma system. Ensure the pipe end is cut squarely and free from burrs. Apply more lubricant if needed.

Seal appears damaged or dislodged

While the captive seal is designed to prevent dislodgement, if damage is suspected, do not proceed with installation. Replace the fitting to ensure a secure and watertight connection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Secure installation due to captive seal technology.
  • Simplified fitting process with push-fit connections.
  • Reliable performance certified by Kitemark.
  • Versatile for tight or complex pipe runs with 87.5° angle.
  • Durable and long-lasting construction.

Cons

  • Requires compatibility with other Wavin Osma soil and vent system components.
  • Not suitable for pressure systems.
  • Limited to 110mm diameter applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the ends of both the pipe and the fitting socket are clean and free from debris.
  2. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the seal and the spigot end of the pipe.
  3. Push the pipe firmly into the socket of the 87.5° bend until it reaches the depth stop. The captive seal ensures it seats correctly.

Compatibility:

  • This fitting is designed to be used with the Wavin OsmaSoil 110mm range of pipes and fittings.
  • Ensure all connecting components are also Kitemarked and meet BS EN 1329-1:2000 standards for optimal system integrity.
  • Not compatible with solvent weld systems.

Care:

  • Regularly inspect the external condition of the pipework for any signs of damage.
  • In areas prone to freezing, ensure adequate insulation. The materials are robust but extreme cold can affect performance over time.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents on the fitting.
