What is a 110mm Swan Neck Pan Connector used for?
A swan neck pan connector (also known as an S-bend or high-rise connector) is a specialized plumbing fitting used to join a toilet pan to a 110mm soil pipe. It is specifically designed for installations where the toilet’s outlet spigot and the waste pipe in the floor do not align horizontally or vertically. The “swan neck” curvature allows the waste to travel up or down to meet the soil stack, making it essential for older properties or modern “back-to-wall” toilet installations.
Why Choose a Rigid Swan Neck over a Flexi-Pipe?
While flexible connectors are common, professional installers at ECO HEAT SHOP recommend a rigid swan neck connector for long-term reliability. Rigid PVC and polypropylene fittings have a completely smooth internal bore. This lack of “ribbing” prevents the buildup of waste and toilet paper, which is the primary cause of blockages in curved pipework. By choosing a rigid swan neck, you ensure a high-velocity flush and a significantly lower risk of maintenance issues.
Engineered for a Professional Finish
Our 4-inch swan neck fitting is built to withstand the rigors of a high-traffic bathroom. The pan-side socket features a thick, multi-finned EPDM rubber seal that grips the ceramic spigot of the toilet, providing a mechanical friction fit that won’t perish over time. The soil-pipe end is designed to push directly into a standard 110mm PVC-U or cast iron socket, creating an airtight seal that prevents foul sewer gases from entering the home.
