Product Information

Full details

The FloPlast 92.5-degree bend is an essential component for residential and commercial drainage systems, specifically designed for installers managing wide roof soffits. Its primary benefit is providing a clean, vertical-to-horizontal transition that avoids the unsightly diagonal aesthetic of traditional swan neck pipes, though users should ensure their existing 80mm downpipe system is compatible with FloPlast Deepflow or Hi-Cap specifications before installation.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this compatible with square downpipes?

No, this component is designed exclusively for 80mm round downpipe systems.

Why is it 92.5 degrees instead of 90?

The extra 2.5 degrees provides a slight gradient that helps water flow more efficiently through the fitting.

Can I paint this bend?

While it comes in a durable black finish, if you choose to paint it, ensure you use a primer suitable for plastics to ensure adhesion.

Does this fit Deepflow gutters?

Yes, this component is specifically compatible with the FloPlast Deepflow and Hi-Cap downpipe ranges.

What is the best way to clean the inside?

Usually, high-pressure water during a routine gutter clean will clear the bend; avoid using metal tools that could scratch the internal surface.

Troubleshooting

Leakage at the connection point

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the bend and that the rubber seal, if present, is not pinched or damaged.

Water pooling in the bend

Check that the downpipe above is properly secured with clips to prevent the bend from shifting or sagging under weight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the need for bulky, diagonal swan neck installations
  • Internal angle promotes efficient drainage
  • High-quality PVC-u ensures long service life
  • Easy to integrate with existing 80mm drainage setups

Cons

  • Specifically designed for 80mm round pipes and will not fit square profiles
  • Requires proper measurement to ensure the offset aligns with roof projections
  • Requires specialized solvent weld or proper push-fit alignment for a watertight seal

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by ensuring the 80mm downpipe is cut cleanly and deburred. The bend is designed for a friction-fit or solvent-weld connection depending on your system's specific requirements. Always ensure the internal wall of the bend is free from debris before connecting to the pipe. For maintenance, a simple rinse with water or a mild detergent wipe-down during gutter cleaning cycles is sufficient. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that could degrade the PVC-u material over time.
