McAlpine plumbing waste elbow connection HC42 long 275 mm angled white

McAlpine plumbing waste elbow connection HC42 long 275 mm angled white is an angled waste connector designed for sanitary and drainage systems. With a 275 mm long body and fixed angle, it provides an extended reach to link traps, pipes and fittings where space or alignment requires a longer connection. The white finish is suitable for visible installations beneath sinks in bathrooms and kitchens, delivering a neat, consistent appearance while routing wastewater reliably.

Advantages

This angled waste elbow offers a robust plastic construction that resists corrosion and typical household chemicals found in drainage systems. Its extended 275 mm length simplifies installation when additional reach is necessary and reduces the need for extra joiners. The fixed-angle design maintains stable alignment between fixtures and existing pipework, helping to prevent stress on seals and joints. The white finish ensures compatibility with common sanitary ware colors and provides an unobtrusive look under basins.

Suitable for

• Connecting basin traps to outlet pipes with extended reach requirements
• Bathroom and kitchen waste lines where a fixed angled connection is needed
• Retrofitting or replacing existing angled connectors to improve alignment
• Installations where visible pipe appearance should match white sanitary fittings

Key specifications

• Type: angled plumbing waste elbow (fixed angle)
• Length: 275 mm (long version for increased reach)
• Finish: white
• Application: sanitary and drainage systems under sinks, basins, and washstands
• Material characteristics: corrosion-resistant plastic suitable for wastewater

How to use

Position the long angled elbow between the trap outlet and the waste pipe or fitting, ensuring the orientation matches the required routing. Prepare contacting pipe ends by cleaning and, if applicable, trimming to the correct insertion depth. Slide the connector into place and secure according to the surrounding system’s connection method—this may involve push-fit engagement or securing with existing compression fittings and seals. Verify alignment and tighten any clamps or locking nuts as appropriate, then run water to check for leaks and confirm correct drainage.

Usage recommendations

Ensure compatibility of diameters and connection types before installation. Use only connectors appropriate for the size and layout of your existing waste system. Inspect seals and compression fittings and replace any worn components to maintain a watertight joint. If in doubt about local plumbing codes or complex layouts, consult a qualified plumber.
