Product Information

Full details

This guide is for plumbers and builders who need to add a new connection to an existing plastic soil pipe after construction. The Wavin OsmaSoil Strap Boss provides a reliable way to make side connections on 110mm BS EN 1329 and BS EN 1453 plastic pipes. A key benefit is its ability to create secure joints using captive seal technology, ensuring a watertight seal. One caveat is that it requires a separate Boss Socket Adaptor for use.

FAQs

What is the purpose of the Wavin OsmaSoil Strap Boss?

The strap boss is used to create a new side connection on an existing 110mm plastic soil pipe after it has already been installed.

Do I need anything else to use the strap boss?

Yes, you will need a compatible 110mm Boss Socket Adaptor, which is sold separately. The specific adaptor will depend on the type of connection you need to make.

What type of pipes is this strap boss compatible with?

It is designed for use with BS EN 1329 and BS EN 1453 standard 110mm plastic soil pipes.

What is captive seal technology?

Captive seal technology refers to the design of the rubber seals within the fittings, which helps to ensure a secure and consistent watertight seal when the joint is made.

Is this product suitable for hot water waste?

While PVC-u can handle typical domestic waste temperatures, it is best practice to check the specific temperature rating for soil and waste systems and consult Wavin's technical documentation for definitive guidance.

Can I use this on metal pipes?

No, this strap boss is specifically designed for use with 110mm plastic pipes conforming to BS EN 1329 and BS EN 1453 standards.

What is the colour of the strap boss?

The strap boss is grey.

Troubleshooting

Leaking connection

Ensure the Boss Socket Adaptor is correctly installed and the strap boss is securely tightened. Verify that the rubber seals are correctly seated and undamaged. Check the compatibility of the pipe and adaptor.

Difficulty fitting the strap boss

Confirm you are using the correct 110mm strap boss for the specified pipe standards (BS EN 1329/1453). Ensure the pipe surface is clean and free of obstructions. The Boss Socket Adaptor must be correctly attached to the strap boss before fitting.

Warping or deformation of the strap boss

This is unlikely with normal use. Ensure the product is not exposed to excessive heat or chemical solvents not intended for PVC-u. Check that the strap boss is not over-tightened, which could stress the plastic.
