FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this socket plug?

The primary purpose is to provide a sealed access point within a Wavin OsmaSoil pipe system, using its closed boss socket feature. It can cap off an unused outlet or prepare for future connections.

What material is the plug made from?

The plug is made from durable PVC-U (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride).

What standards does this product meet?

It is Kitemarked to BS EN 1329-1:2000, which relates to the requirements for pipes and fittings for soil and waste applications.

Can I use this plug with other brands of soil pipe fittings?

While designed for the Wavin OsmaSoil system, it is intended to fit into Wavin OsmaSoil ring-seal or solvent sockets. Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed and not recommended for critical installations.

What size pipe does this plug fit?

This socket plug is designed for 110mm diameter soil pipes and fittings.

How do I join the plug to the socket?

The plug is designed to fit into a pre-existing Wavin OsmaSoil socket. If the socket requires solvent welding, use the appropriate solvent cement. If it's a ring-seal socket, the plug will insert into it, relying on the socket's seal.

Troubleshooting

Plug does not fit securely into the socket.

Ensure you are using a compatible Wavin OsmaSoil socket of the correct size (110mm). Check for any obstructions or damage within the socket or on the plug. Verify if it's a ring-seal or solvent weld socket and ensure the correct installation method is being used.

Leaking around the plug insertion point.

If using a ring-seal socket, ensure the seal is properly seated and lubricated. If using a solvent weld joint, check that the solvent cement was applied correctly and allowed to cure fully. Re-examine the socket and plug for any cracks or defects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This socket plug is designed to be inserted into a compatible Wavin OsmaSoil ring-seal socket or a solvent weld socket. Ensure the socket is clean and free from debris before insertion. If using solvent weld, prepare both the plug and socket according to the solvent cement manufacturer's instructions.

Compatibility:

This product is part of the Wavin OsmaSoil 110mm system. It is specifically designed to fit into Wavin OsmaSoil sockets, whether they are ring-seal or solvent weld types. Ensure you are using it within a 110mm diameter soil waste pipe system.

Care:

No specific maintenance is required for the socket plug itself. Routine cleaning of the soil system, as recommended by local regulations or plumbing best practices, will ensure the longevity of the entire installation. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the PVC-U material over extended periods.
