Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the angle of this gutter pipe bend?

The bend has a precise 92.5° angle, designed for efficient redirection of water flow.

Is this bend compatible with different brands of guttering?

Yes, it is designed for compatibility with most metal or plastic guttering systems of the same diameter.

How is this bend installed?

It features a pre-lubricated fitted gutter seal and retaining clip system for straightforward push-fit installation.

What material is the bend made from?

The product description indicates it is made from durable material suitable for guttering systems, typically UPVC or similar plastics for FloPlast products.

Can this bend be used for square downpipes?

No, this specific product is designed for round downpipe systems with a 68mm diameter.

Does the seal require additional sealant?

No, the bend comes with a pre-lubricated seal and a retaining clip, designed for a watertight fit without additional sealant.

Troubleshooting

Leaking connection

Ensure the pipe ends are clean and fully inserted into the bend's seal. Check that the retaining clip is properly engaged. If the issue persists, re-lubricate the seal and re-seat the connection.

Difficult to connect

Confirm that both the downpipe and the bend are the correct 68mm diameter. Ensure the pre-lubricated seal is intact and not obstructed. A small amount of silicone lubricant can aid insertion if needed.

Poor water flow after installation

Check for blockages within the bend or connected downpipe sections. Ensure the bend is correctly aligned to facilitate smooth water passage and not creating an unintended restriction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to install due to pre-lubricated seal and clip system.
  • Ensures a secure and watertight connection.
  • Versatile compatibility with various guttering materials.
  • Efficiently redirects water flow with its specific angle.
  • Durable construction suitable for new builds and renovations.

Cons

  • Specific 68mm diameter may not fit all existing systems.
  • Primarily designed for round downpipe systems.
  • Requires careful alignment to ensure optimal sealing.
  • Angle is fixed at 92.5°, limiting flexibility for very specific angles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, ensure the ends of the existing downpipe and the bend are clean. Apply a small amount of lubricant if needed to the pre-lubricated seal on the bend. Slide the bend onto the existing downpipe until the retaining clip engages firmly. Repeat for the other end if connecting two sections. Ensure a snug fit to prevent leaks.

Compatibility: This 68mm round downpipe bend is designed to be compatible with most standard 68mm round downpipes made from metal or plastic. Verify the diameter of your existing downpipe before purchasing.

Care: The FloPlast bend requires minimal maintenance. Regularly check for and remove any debris like leaves or twigs that may accumulate in the guttering system to ensure optimal water flow. Clean with a damp cloth if necessary; avoid abrasive cleaners.
