45 Degree Drainage Bend
A
45 degree drainage bend provides a more gradual change of direction than a 90° bend and can be used when routing underground drainage around obstacles or altering the direction of a pipe run. Where the drainage layout allows, bends with shallower angles can help create a smoother route through the system and may also be combined where a particular change of direction is required.
Double Socket Connection
The
110mm double socket bend has a socket connection at each end, allowing compatible plain-ended underground drainage pipe or fittings to connect directly into both sides. Always check the connection type of the surrounding pipework before ordering, particularly when choosing between single socket and double socket versions of the same bend.
Where to Use This Underground Drainage Bend
This
underground drainage bend is suitable for use within compatible below-ground foul and surface water drainage systems. Typical applications include:
- Domestic foul water drainage
- Surface water drainage systems
- House extensions and alterations
- New underground drainage installations
- Drainage repairs and replacements
- Changes of direction in 110mm pipework
- General groundwork projects
Installing the 110mm Drainage Bend
Before fitting the
110mm drainage bend, establish the required route, fall and alignment of the drainage system. Any pipe cut on site should be cut square and sharp burrs removed before assembly. Clean the jointing surfaces and use suitable underground drainage lubricant where required to help the pipe enter the socket correctly. Align the fitting and surrounding pipework before making the final connections. Avoid forcing pipework sideways into the bend to compensate for poor alignment.
Supporting Below-Ground Drainage Fittings
The bend and surrounding pipework should be correctly supported on suitable bedding as part of the underground drainage installation. Check the alignment and joints before backfilling, and avoid placing sharp stones, rubble or other potentially damaging material directly against the fitting.
