FAQs

What type of solvent cement should I use?

Use solvent cement specifically designed for ABS plastic. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the cement packaging.

How do I measure the offset?

Measure the horizontal distance between the center of the toilet outlet and the center of the waste pipe.

Can I use this connector with different pipe sizes?

This connector is designed for use with 4"/110mm waste pipes.

What is the lifespan of this connector?

With proper installation and care, the McAlpine WC Connector is designed to last for many years.

How do I know if the connection is watertight?

After the solvent cement has cured, visually inspect the connections for any signs of leakage. Run water through the toilet to check for leaks.

Leakage at the connection points.

Ensure that the solvent cement was applied correctly and has fully cured. Re-apply solvent cement if necessary and check for cracks in the connector. Tighten connections if applicable.
