90 Degree Swept Bend
A
90 degree swept bend creates a more gradual change of direction than a compact or tight 90° fitting. The extended curved profile helps provide a smoother route through the drainage system where installation space allows. This makes the fitting particularly useful when directing an underground drainage run through approximately a right angle while avoiding an unnecessarily abrupt change in direction.
Single Socket Connection
The
110mm single socket swept bend uses one socket connection with a plain spigot at the opposite end. This configuration is useful where the bend needs to connect directly into the socket of another compatible drainage fitting. Check the connection arrangement of the surrounding pipework before ordering, as single socket and double socket swept bends are used differently within a drainage layout.
Where to Use This Underground Drainage Swept Bend
This
underground drainage swept bend is suitable for compatible below-ground drainage systems where a smooth 90° directional change is required. Typical applications include:
- Domestic underground drainage
- Foul water drainage systems
- Surface water drainage systems
- Soil pipe to underground drainage connections
- House extensions and alterations
- New drainage installations
- Drainage repairs and replacements
- General groundwork projects
Installing the 110mm Drainage Bend
Before installing the
110mm drainage bend, establish the required drainage route, fall and alignment of the surrounding pipework. Where pipe needs to be cut on site, make a square cut and remove any sharp burrs or rough edges before assembly. Clean the jointing surfaces and use a suitable underground drainage lubricant where required. Align the fitting correctly before completing the connection and avoid forcing pipework sideways into the bend to compensate for poor positioning.
Why Choose a Competa Single Socket Swept Bend?
The
Competa single socket swept bend provides a practical, cost-effective option for everyday underground drainage installations where a smooth 90° change of direction is needed. It forms part of the competitively priced Competa Drainage range, making it suitable for trade projects, renovations, extensions and general drainage repairs where keeping material costs under control is important.
Choosing Between Swept and Compact Bends
A swept bend has a longer, more gradual curve than a standard compact 90° fitting. Where space and the drainage layout permit, this can provide a smoother route through the system. This product is the
single socket swept version. Check whether the surrounding installation requires a single socket, double socket, compact bend, swept bend or long-radius fitting before ordering.
