Is this product suitable for outdoor use?

What standards does this coupling meet?

Troubleshooting

The connection is leaking.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted and then withdrawn by approximately 10mm. Check the O-ring for damage or dislodgement. Reassemble the joint, ensuring a tight fit.

The pipe is difficult to insert.

Apply SL40 spray lubricant to the pipe end and the inside of the coupling to reduce friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to install due to the push-fit design.
  • Durable and long-lasting due to the Polypropylene construction.
  • Provides a secure, leak-proof connection.
  • Complies with industry standards for quality and safety.

Cons

  • May require lubricant for disassembly.
  • Limited to use with 32mm pipes (other sizes available).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Ensure the waste pipes are clean and cut squarely. Remove any burrs from the pipe ends.
  2. Installation: Push the pipe firmly into the coupling until it meets the internal stop. Then, withdraw the pipe approximately 10mm to allow for thermal expansion.
  3. Compatibility: This coupling is specifically designed for use with 32mm waste pipes. Ensure compatibility with other fittings and pipes in your system.
  4. Lubrication: Using SL40 spray lubricant can ease the connection and disconnection process, particularly if you anticipate needing to adjust the joint later.
  5. Care: Regularly inspect the connections for any signs of leaks. Avoid excessive force when connecting or disconnecting the pipes.
