Product Information
Full details
The Securplumb Compression Bend (40mm) is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and professional plumbers looking for a reliable, solvent-free solution for waste pipe routing. Its primary benefit is the quick and secure 135-degree angle connection that eliminates the need for messy glues or complex chemical bonding. While it provides an exceptionally sturdy seal, it is designed specifically for 40mm pipe diameters, meaning it will not fit standard 32mm or larger soil pipe systems without proper adapters.

FAQs
Does this require any glue?
No, this is a compression fitting and relies on a mechanical seal rather than solvent welding.
Can I use this on 32mm pipe?
No, this fitting is strictly for 40mm pipe; you would need a pipe reducer adapter to use it on smaller pipe diameters.
Is this suitable for outdoor use?
While durable, it is primarily intended for internal domestic waste systems and should be protected from extreme UV exposure.
Can I reuse the fitting?
Yes, because it is a compression fitting, you can unscrew the nut and remove the pipe without damaging the components.
What tools do I need for installation?
Usually hand-tightening is sufficient, but a basin wrench or adjustable spanner may be used for final tightening.
Troubleshooting
The fitting is leaking at the joint
Ensure the pipe is pushed in fully past the internal seal and that the compression nut is tightened evenly.
Difficulty inserting the pipe into the fitting
Check the pipe end for rough burrs or debris; ensure the pipe is cut square and consider using a tiny amount of silicone lubricant on the pipe tip.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- No solvent welding or messy glue required
- Easy to disassemble and reuse if adjustments are needed
- Clean, professional-looking white finish
- Reliable watertight seal for waste water systems
Cons
- Compatible only with 40mm piping systems
- Requires proper pipe preparation to ensure a flush seal
- Not suitable for high-pressure water supply lines
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: ensure the 40mm pipe is clean and free of debris. Insert the pipe firmly into the fitting until it meets the internal stop. Tighten the compression nut by hand until firm, and perform a final quarter-turn with a wrench if necessary—avoid overtightening to prevent cracking the nut. Periodically check the fitting after the initial installation to ensure no moisture is present. The material is chemical resistant but should be wiped clean with a damp cloth; avoid using abrasive scrubbers that may scratch the finish.
