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

The Polypipe PS18 Multifit 45-Degree Elbow offers a high-quality solution for directing 1 1/2″ bath and kitchen waste. Specifically, this 40mm compression fitting provides a gradual bend, which helps prevent debris build-up compared to sharper 90-degree turns. The universal internal seal accommodates a range of pipe sizes, specifically 40mm, 42mm, and 43mm diameters. We manufacture the PS18 from high-impact polypropylene to ensure the colour remains a clean white while resisting household chemicals and high temperatures. In short, this elbow allows for precise, leak-proof alignment in any domestic drainage setup.

Standard plumbing layouts often feature awkward gaps where a 90-degree bend is too sharp and a straight pipe cannot reach. Furthermore, using the wrong angle in a bath waste run can lead to slow drainage and annoying gurgling sounds. Specifically, many homeowners face frustration when trying to connect modern 40mm pipework to older, slightly larger 1 1/2″ legacy systems. However, the Polypipe PS18 Multifit 45° Bend solves these compatibility and flow issues. It bridges the gap between different pipe standards while maintaining a smooth path for wastewater. Because the compression fitting allows for easy adjustment, you can find the perfect angle without cutting and gluing multiple parts. Therefore, you can finish your installation with a professional, non-permanent seal that remains easy to maintain.
