  Can be disconnected and repositioned easily, making it a preferred choice for both permanent and temporary installations.

Ideal Applications:

• Residential kitchen and bathroom waste systems

• Utility room plumbing configurations

• Plumbing installations with restricted space requiring a gradual directional change

• Drainage pipe rerouting or system upgrades

• Repair and replacement of existing fittings

Installation Instructions:

1. Prepare Pipe Ends:
   Ensure pipe ends are clean, smooth, and free from burrs. A straight, square cut is recommended for optimal sealing.

2. Insert Pipe:
   Push the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the internal stop. No glue or tightening tools are necessary.

3. Check Fit:
   Verify that the pipe is securely seated and that the angle aligns with the intended direction of flow.

4. Test System:
   Run water through the system to check for any signs of leakage or misalignment.
