Description
Long Radius Bend for 110mm Underground Drainage
The
long radius bend creates a smooth 45° change of direction in 110mm underground drainage pipework. Its sweeping profile gives the drainage route a more gradual turn than a standard compact bend. Therefore, it is useful when the installation has enough room for a wider directional change. This Kayflow fitting has plain ends rather than built-in ring-seal sockets. Each end must connect to a compatible 110mm socketed pipe, coupler or fitting. The plain-ended design gives installers flexibility when positioning the bend within a new drainage run, alteration or repair.
Where to Use This Long Radius Bend
Use this fitting in underground gravity drainage systems for foul water or surface water. It can redirect a horizontal drainage run, help route pipework around an obstruction or connect two sections positioned at a 45° angle. The wider curve supports a smoother change of direction. As a result, the fitting is particularly useful where the drainage layout allows more space than a standard short-radius bend would require.

Connecting the Plain-Ended Bend
First, plan the complete drainage route and confirm that the long radius profile fits the available space. Check the pipe depth, alignment and required fall before assembling the surrounding pipework. Both ends of the fitting are plain. Consequently, each end normally connects through a compatible double socket coupler, slip coupler or socketed drainage fitting. Check that each receiving socket contains the correct sealing ring. Next, clean the pipe ends, sockets and sealing areas. Remove grit, mud and loose material. Apply a suitable underground drainage lubricant to the sealing rings and prepared spigots. Then align each joint and push it together firmly without forcing the connection at an angle.
Installing the 45° Underground Drainage Bend
Support the fitting and surrounding pipework with suitable granular bedding. In addition, maintain the specified drainage fall throughout the complete run. Correct bedding helps prevent movement and reduces strain on the joints. Finally, inspect every connection before backfilling. Confirm that the pipework remains aligned and that no debris has entered the drainage system. Browse the full
