FAQs

What materials is the FloPlast Waste Pipe Bend compatible with?

It is compatible with both plastic and copper pipes.

What sizes are available?

The bend is available in 32mm and 40mm sizes.

What does BS EN 1451 mean?

It is a European standard for plastic piping systems for soil and waste discharge within the building structure.

Can I reuse the compression joint?

Yes, but always check the rubber seal for damage before reassembling. Replace if necessary to ensure a watertight seal.

How do I prevent leaks?

Ensure the pipe is cut squarely, all components are correctly placed, and the nut is tightened securely. Also, inspect the seal for any damage before assembling.

Where is the FloPlast Waste Pipe Bend manufactured?

It is manufactured in the UK.

What is a compression joint?

A compression joint uses a nut, washer, and a rubber seal to create a watertight connection between two pipes or a pipe and a fitting.

Troubleshooting

The joint is leaking.

Check if the nut is tightened correctly. Ensure that the rubber seal is properly positioned and not damaged. Disassemble and reassemble the joint if needed, making sure the pipe is pushed in fully.

The pipe won't fit into the fitting.

Make sure the pipe end is cut squarely and free of burrs. Also, ensure you have the correct size fitting for your pipe.
