Product Information

Full details

The Lindab 45-degree conical downpipe bend is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts installing steel rainwater systems who need to navigate around architectural facade features. Its primary benefit is the ease with which it facilitates offsets and swan-necks when paired with standard downpipes, providing a clean, durable finish in Anthracite Grey. Note that this component requires careful measurement of your offset requirements to ensure the correct angle and pipe spacing is maintained for proper drainage flow.

FAQs

Is this bend compatible with PVC downpipes?

No, this component is specifically designed for Lindab steel rainwater systems and is sized for 87mm steel pipes. It is not recommended for use with PVC piping.

Can I paint this component a different color?

The component comes pre-finished in Anthracite Grey HB polyester paint. While it can be overpainted, it is designed to be weather-resistant in its original finish.

How do I create a swan-neck?

You need two 45-degree bends and a short section of 87mm downpipe. Connect the bends to either end of the short pipe section to create the desired offset distance.

Does this bend rust easily?

No, it is made of galvanized steel and protected by a high-quality polyester coating, making it highly resistant to rust and atmospheric corrosion.

What is the diameter of this bend?

This component is designed specifically for an 87mm diameter downpipe system.

Troubleshooting

The connection feels loose.

Ensure the male spigot is fully inserted into the female end. If it remains loose, check for any debris inside the fitting or consider using a small amount of external sealant.

The downpipe is not sitting plumb after adding the bend.

Re-check the angle of the pipe cut. Ensure the offset calculation was accurate; you may need to adjust the length of the intermediate pipe section between the two bends.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simple push-fit installation
  • High-quality galvanized steel construction
  • Fade-resistant polyester coating
  • Ideal for creating custom offsets and swan-necks

Cons

  • Requires precise measurement for accurate offset alignment
  • Only compatible with 87mm diameter systems
  • Cannot be bent or reshaped to change the angle

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your 87mm downpipe is cut cleanly and free of burrs. The male spigot end of the bend should be inserted into the female receiver of the adjacent pipe or fitting. For permanent installations, you may choose to secure joints with appropriate stainless steel screws or sealant, though the friction fit is often sufficient. Regarding care, the Anthracite Grey HB polyester coating requires minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect the downpipe system for debris and clean with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to maintain the factory finish. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch the paint surface.
