What is a 45 Degree Push-Fit Bend used for?
A 45 degree push-fit bend (also known as an oblique or obtuse bend) is an essential plumbing component used to change the direction of a waste pipe by a shallow angle. It is most commonly used to create “offsets”—allowing the pipework to bypass structural obstacles like floor joists or wall supports—while maintaining a high flow of wastewater from sinks, basins, and appliances.
Why Choose Push-Fit for your Plumbing Project?
At ECO HEAT SHOP, we understand that efficiency is key. Our black push-fit bend eliminates the need for messy solvent cements or specialized equipment. The fitting features captive EPDM rubber “O-rings” that grip the pipe securely upon insertion, providing an airtight, watertight barrier immediately. This makes it a superior choice for both DIY enthusiasts and professional tradespeople working in confined spaces where glue application is difficult.
Engineered for High Performance and Durability
Manufactured from high-impact polypropylene (PP), this fitting is built to last. It is resistant to the chemical cleaners commonly used in household drainage and can easily withstand high-temperature water discharge (up to 90°C) from washing machines and dishwashers. The UV-resistant black finish ensures that even when used on external stacks, the fitting will not become brittle or fade over time.
