What is a 110mm Drainage Bend Used For?
A 110mm drainage bend is a fundamental component in UK underground gravity drainage systems. It is specifically used to change the direction of a 110mm (4-inch) sewer pipe run. By using a 45-degree angle rather than a sharp 90-degree turn, this bend facilitates a smoother flow of waste and surface water, which is critical for preventing blockages and maintaining system health.
Advantages of the 45 Degree Double Socket Design
This 110mm drainage bend features a double-socket configuration, meaning it has a captive rubber seal at both openings. This eliminates the need for additional couplings when joining two pieces of pipe, saving both time and material costs on-site. The “push-fit” mechanism provides a flexible joint that can withstand minor ground movement and soil settlement without losing its watertight integrity.
Why Quality Matters in Underground Drainage
When installing a 110mm drainage bend, durability is non-negotiable. Our fittings are manufactured from high-impact PVC-U (Polyvinyl Chloride Unplasticized), which is naturally resistant to the chemical corrosion found in soil and domestic effluent. At ECO HEAT SHOP, we ensure our drainage products meet all relevant UK building regulations, providing peace of mind for both DIYers and professional contractors.
