Product Information

Full details

The FloPlast Push Fit Waste Pipe is designed for trade professionals and DIY enthusiasts looking for a reliable, time-saving solution for internal wastewater drainage systems. Its primary benefit is the rapid, tool-free installation enabled by the push-fit mechanism, which removes the need for messy solvent welding. While highly efficient for standard plumbing configurations, users should note that it is strictly intended for internal use and must be cut accurately to ensure the integrity of the push-fit seals.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this pipe be used outside?

No, this push-fit system is specifically designed for internal domestic wastewater applications only.

Does this pipe require solvent cement?

No, this is a push-fit system. Using solvent cement on these fittings is unnecessary and may damage the rubber seals.

What standard does this pipe meet?

It is manufactured in the UK in accordance with BS EN 1451 standards.

Can I use this with 50mm piping?

No, you would need specific reduction fittings or a different pipe size, as this is a 40mm diameter pipe.

How do I cut the pipe correctly?

Use a fine-toothed saw to cut the pipe square, then use a file or sandpaper to remove any rough burrs from the edge.

Is this pipe resistant to hot water?

Yes, it is designed to handle the temperatures typical of residential kitchen and bathroom wastewater, such as from dishwashers.

Troubleshooting

Joint is leaking

Check that the pipe end is de-burred and free of debris. Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting to seat the internal seal.

Pipe is difficult to insert

Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the pipe end to help it slide past the internal seal.

Pipe sagging after installation

Install additional pipe support clips to maintain the required gradient for proper water flow.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Rapid, tool-free installation process
  • No hazardous solvent cements required
  • Built-in thermal expansion capacity
  • Compliant with BS EN 1451 standards
  • Durable and reliable for high-flow fixtures

Cons

  • Not suitable for external applications
  • Requires precise pipe cutting for leak-free seals
  • Limited to 40mm diameter installations only
  • Less permanent than solvent weld systems in high-vibration areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a watertight seal, cut the pipe square using a fine-toothed saw and ensure the edge is smooth and free of burrs. When inserting the pipe into the fitting, push it fully home to engage the seal, then pull back approximately 10mm to allow for thermal movement. Ensure the pipe is properly supported with appropriate clips at regular intervals to prevent sagging. The system is compatible with standard 40mm FloPlast push-fit fittings. For maintenance, keep the pipe free of heavy debris and avoid using harsh caustic drain cleaners that might compromise the internal rubber seals over an extended period.
