• **please check sizes on diagram to see if this will be okay for your existing pipework

This mcalpine drain adapter provides a high-quality and reliable method for connecting modern 110mm (4 inch) PVC soil pipes to older clay or cast iron drainage systems. Because it features a standard ring-seal push-fit socket on one end and a multi-finned rubber seal on the other, it creates a flexible, airtight, and watertight connection without any tools. Furthermore, the specialized heavy-duty polypropylene body and durable synthetic rubber ribs ensure a high-friction grip that prevents the pipes from shifting. It effectively bridges the gap between different generations of UK drainage pipework without the need for messy cement or mortar.

Connecting modern plastic pipework to traditional clay or cast iron often results in “stepping” at the joints, which leads to snagging debris and eventual blockages. However, using rigid mortar joints often fails because older pipes are rarely perfectly round or consistent in diameter, leading to cracks, persistent leaks, and foul odors. This mcalpine drain adapter (DC1-BL) solves the problem by providing a “plug-in” solution that simply pushes into the bore of the existing clay or cast iron pipe. As a result, you get a professional, long-lasting connection that accommodates ground settlement and thermal expansion in seconds.
