McAlpine V8M Multifit Compression Tee Branch (32mm–36mm) – 1 1/4″ Waste Pipe Joiner

Features

The McAlpine V8M Tee Branch provides a reliable, tool-free solution for joining or branching 1 1/4″ waste pipes. Engineered for versatility, this “Multifit” connector accommodates waste pipe diameters ranging from 32mm to 36mm. It utilizes a simple “nut and cone” compression design to create a secure, leak-free seal without the need for specialized tools or messy solvent welding. If you are working with thicker gauge waste pipes, you can easily adapt the fitting by carefully removing the internal sleeve.

• Versatile Sizing: Fits standard waste pipes between 32mm and 36mm.
• Easy Installation: Features a simple “nut and cone” washer connection that requires no tools.
• Adaptable Design: The internal sleeve is removable, allowing the fitting to accommodate thicker pipe gauges.
• Secure Sealing: Compression fittings ensure a tight, leak-proof joint.

Instructions

1. Simply slide the white nut over the pipe first along with the nylon washer, before the pointed black rubber washer
2. Make sure that the black rubber washer is pointing the thin end towards the white fitting you have yet to put on and slide the rubber on an inch or so
3. Push the rest of the fitting on so that the rubber joins up with the plastic fitting, you may then try and push the fitting with the rubber further down the pipe if need be
4. Finally bring the nut back and screw onto the rest of the fitting, compressing the pointed washer against the plastic to make a seal, then repeat the action for the other side and that’s it!

Details

Plumbing repairs often become complicated when pipe diameters do not match perfectly or when access is too restricted to use heavy tools. Using glues or solvents can be messy and prevents future adjustments, while incorrectly sized fittings lead to persistent leaks and drainage issues.

The McAlpine V8M eliminates these problems by offering a flexible, compression-based connection. Because it fits a range of sizes, it bridges the gap between different pipe standards without requiring extra adapters. Its tool-free installation saves time in tight spaces, and the ability to modify the internal sleeve provides the versatility needed for various waste pipe thicknesses. It is a straightforward, professional-grade fix for basin and sink waste systems.
