FAQs
What is the purpose of the 45-degree angle?
The 45-degree angle allows for changes in direction in your soil and waste pipe runs, enabling you to navigate around obstacles or connect to different parts of the drainage system.
Can this bend be used for underground drainage?
No, the Wavin OsmaSoil system, including this bend, is specifically designed for above-ground drainage applications.
What is the difference between the two sockets?
One socket is a push-fit ring-seal type, designed for quick and easy connection with a pre-installed seal. The other is a solvent weld socket, requiring primer and cement for a permanent, rigid joint.
How do I ensure a watertight seal on the push-fit side?
Ensure the pipe is pushed fully into the ring-seal socket. The captive seal technology is designed to maintain a watertight seal when properly engaged.
What materials are needed for the solvent weld connection?
You will need Wavin PVC-U primer and Wavin solvent weld cement, along with a clean cloth, to prepare the surfaces and create a secure bond.
Is this product suitable for all types of waste?
This system is designed for sanitary waste. Its resistance to common chemicals makes it suitable for household and commercial waste, but always consult manufacturer guidelines for specific chemical compatibility.
Troubleshooting
Leak at push-fit joint
Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the ring-seal socket. Check the condition of the captive seal and clean the pipe end. If the seal is damaged, the fitting may need replacement.
Poor bond at solvent weld joint
Ensure surfaces were properly cleaned and primed before applying solvent weld cement. Check that the cement was still wet when the pipe was inserted and held in place. Re-do the joint if necessary, following manufacturer instructions for primer and cement.
Difficulty inserting pipe
For push-fit, ensure the pipe end is clean and slightly chamfered. A small amount of silicone lubricant can aid insertion. For solvent weld, ensure no excess primer or cement is obstructing the socket.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Durable PVC-U material resistant to chemicals.
Flexible installation with both push-fit and solvent weld options.
Secure and reliable seals due to captive seal technology.
Meets stringent safety and quality standards (Kitemarked).
Designed for efficient sanitary waste removal.
Cons
Requires careful identification of socket types (push-fit vs. solvent weld) during installation.
Primarily for above-ground use; not suitable for underground drainage.
Solvent weld joints require specific primers and cements for proper bonding.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Identify the two different socket types: one is a push-fit ring-seal socket, the other is a solvent weld socket.
For the push-fit connection, ensure the pipe end is clean and chamfered. Push the pipe firmly into the ring-seal socket until it is fully seated.
For the solvent weld connection, prepare both the pipe end and the inside of the socket by cleaning and applying the appropriate PVC-U primer, followed by solvent weld cement. Insert the pipe into the socket and hold for a few seconds to ensure a strong bond.
Compatibility:
This 110mm bend is designed to connect with other 110mm Wavin OsmaSoil pipes and fittings.
Ensure compatibility with any existing drainage systems if integrating into a mixed-material setup.
Care:
Regularly inspect visible joints for any signs of damage or leaks.
Clean the exterior of the pipework with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the PVC-U.
