Product Information

Full details

The Lindab Steel Drain Connector (MRTDG) is designed for contractors and homeowners looking to bridge the gap between standard Lindab steel downpipe systems and various non-standard ground piping. Its primary benefit is providing a secure, leak-resistant transition that integrates seamlessly with HD polyethylene downpipe filters. While it is highly versatile for unique installations, users should note that it is specifically engineered for non-standard ground pipe dimensions and may not be necessary if using a standardized drainage system.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this connector compatible with plastic downpipes?

The MRTDG is specifically designed for Lindab steel downpipe systems.

Can I use this with any ground pipe size?

It is designed to bridge the gap to a variety of non-standard dimensions, but please verify your specific pipe diameter against the connector's specifications.

Do I need special tools for installation?

Standard hand tools for cutting and alignment are sufficient.

How does this work with filters?

It is engineered to work directly with HD polyethylene downpipe filters to ensure a secure transition into the ground drainage system.

Does the steel rust over time?

The material is treated for outdoor environmental wear, but regular inspection is recommended to ensure the protective finish remains intact.

Troubleshooting

Loose connection between downpipe and fitting

Ensure the steel downpipe is fully seated within the connector and that no debris is obstructing the internal seal.

Visible water leakage at the joint

Verify that the ground pipe is not excessively worn and that the connector is perfectly centered on the pipe axis.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ensures a reliable connection for non-standard pipe dimensions
  • Highly durable and resistant to environmental wear
  • Easy to integrate with existing Lindab filtration systems
  • Provides long-term UV protection for outdoor longevity

Cons

  • Specific to non-standard sizing requirements
  • Requires proper alignment during initial setup
  • Not intended for use with non-steel compatible downpipe systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the MRTDG requires basic plumbing alignment skills. Ensure the steel downpipe is cut cleanly before inserting it into the connector to maintain a tight seal. When connecting to ground pipes, verify that the diameter is compatible with the range supported by the fitting. For care, simply perform a visual inspection twice a year—typically during seasonal transitions—to ensure the connection remains tight and free of external debris. No specialized cleaners are required; a standard damp cloth suffices if external cleaning is necessary.
