Description
The
45 degree Y lateral saddle is a genuine
VIPSeal VYS100 saddle designed to create a
110mm PVC branch connection into a larger smooth-wall drainage main. This
160-400mm host pipe saddle is designed as a
smooth wall pipe branch saddle for compatible PVC, concrete and vitrified clay drainage pipes. The
45 degree Y lateral saddle introduces the 110mm lateral into the host pipe at a 45° angle, providing a more swept branch arrangement than the corresponding 90° VTS100 tee saddle. VIPSeal specifies the VYS100 for host pipes with an outside diameter from 160mm to 400mm.
45 Degree Y Lateral Saddle
The
45 degree Y lateral saddle is used where a 110mm drainage branch needs to enter a larger main pipe at an angled 45° connection. The saddle allows a new branch to be introduced without removing and replacing a complete section of the existing drainage main. Because the lateral enters the main at an angle, the
45 degree Y lateral saddle provides a different flow path from a conventional right-angle tee connection and should be selected according to the drainage layout.
VIPSeal VYS100 Saddle
The
VIPSeal VYS100 saddle is the genuine manufacturer reference for the 45° Y-style connection within VIPSeal’s VTS/VYS lateral saddle range. The
VIPSeal VYS100 saddle should not be confused with VTS100. VTS100 creates a 90° tee connection, while VYS100 creates the 45° Y connection covered on this page.
110mm PVC Branch Connection
The VYS100 is specifically designed to create a
110mm PVC branch connection into a larger compatible host pipe. VIPSeal specifies the lateral size as 110mm PVC while allowing the main pipe outside diameter to range from 160mm to 400mm. This
110mm PVC branch connection arrangement can be useful for drainage alterations, extensions and new branch installations.
160-400mm Host Pipe Saddle
The
160-400mm host pipe saddle is selected according to the actual outside diameter of the main drainage pipe. VIPSeal confirms that VYS100 is suitable across this full host-pipe diameter range. The
160-400mm host pipe saddle can be fitted to compatible host pipes of differing wall thicknesses, provided the material, outside diameter and external profile meet the manufacturer’s requirements.
Smooth Wall Pipe Branch Saddle
The VYS100 is specifically a
smooth wall pipe branch saddle. VIPSeal identifies smooth-wall PVC, concrete and vitrified clay as suitable host-pipe materials. The
smooth wall pipe branch saddle should not automatically be used on corrugated, ribbed or twinwall pipe because these external profiles require a different type of saddle connection.
Installing a 45 Degree Y Lateral Saddle
Before installing the
45 degree Y lateral saddle, confirm the host-pipe outside diameter, pipe material, required branch position and 110mm lateral size. The host pipe should be prepared in accordance with VIPSeal’s installation guidance. The sealing area should be clean, even and free from dirt, grit or damage that could interfere with the EPDM gasket. Position the
45 degree Y lateral saddle correctly over the prepared opening before securing the stainless-steel straps evenly around the main pipe.
Flexible PVC Saddle Body and EPDM Gasket
VIPSeal specifies a flexible PVC body for the VYS100 together with a 6mm thick, 60 Shore EPDM sealing gasket. The flexible body allows the saddle to conform around compatible smooth-wall host pipes while the EPDM gasket provides the sealing interface around the new lateral opening.
304 Stainless-Steel Clamping Hardware
The
VIPSeal VYS100 saddle uses 304 stainless-steel clamping components. VIPSeal specifies 304 stainless steel for its shroud and end-clamp hardware. The external straps secure the saddle and gasket against the host pipe to create the completed branch connection.
0.5 Bar Internal Pressure Rating
VIPSeal states that the VTS/VYS saddle range can withstand an internal pressure of 0.5 bar when correctly installed. The manufacturer also describes the connection as providing an airtight and watertight seal between the larger host pipe and smaller lateral connection. The VYS100 should remain within its intended drainage application and should not be treated as a general high-pressure pipeline fitting.
Suitable Host Pipe Materials
The
smooth wall pipe branch saddle is suitable for compatible:
- Smooth-wall PVC drainage pipe
- Concrete drainage pipe
- Vitrified clay drainage pipe
VIPSeal states that the saddle can be used on compatible host pipes of varying wall thickness, provided their outside diameter falls within the specified 160–400mm range.
45 Degree Y Lateral Saddle Applications
The
45 degree Y lateral saddle can be used where a new 110mm branch needs to connect into an existing larger drainage main at a 45° angle.
- 110mm PVC lateral connections
- Underground drainage alterations
- New drainage branches
- Stormwater drainage connections
- Smooth-wall PVC mains
- Compatible concrete mains
- Compatible vitrified clay mains
VIPSeal VYS100 Saddle for 45 Degree Branch Connections
The
VIPSeal VYS100 saddle is specifically intended where the drainage design calls for an angled Y-style branch rather than a 90° tee connection. The exact VYS100 reference therefore helps distinguish this product from other VIPSeal lateral saddle configurations.
Choosing the Correct 45 Degree Y Lateral Saddle
Before ordering a
45 degree Y lateral saddle, check the required connection angle, main-pipe outside diameter, host-pipe material and lateral size. Choose VYS100 for a 45° connection from a compatible 160–400mm host pipe to a 110mm PVC lateral. Where a 90° connection is required instead, select the corresponding VTS100 saddle.
