Product Overview
The 110mm Underground Drainage Rest Bend is expertly manufactured from high-quality uPVC, ensuring compliance with BS EN 1401-1 standards for foul and surface water systems. Its robust construction guarantees strength, durability, and long-term resistance to corrosion and chemical attacks.
This rest bend is specifically designed for use at the base of soil stacks, providing a smooth transition from vertical to horizontal drainage. It features push-fit sockets on both ends, facilitating secure and watertight connections to plain-ended pipes. With an 87.5° angle, it is ideal for installation at low levels, near foundations or beneath floors, to minimize blockages and reduce flow resistance.
