What material is the FloPlast 110mm Long Radius Bend made of?

It is made of terracotta PVC.

Where is the 87.5-degree bend commonly used?

Troubleshooting

Leakage at the joints.

Check the seal between the bend and the connecting pipes. Ensure the seals are correctly seated and that the connections are secure. If necessary, replace the seals.
