Toilet pan connector McAlpine WC-CON8F adjustable bend L=270–540 mm

McAlpine WC-CON8F is an adjustable toilet pan connector in a harmonica/accordion style that allows a variable connection length from 270 to 540 mm. The flexible design accommodates misaligned or offset soil pipe connections and is suitable for use where fixed rigid connectors cannot be fitted easily. The product is intended for household and commercial toilet installations, repairs and replacements, providing a compact solution for confined spaces and variable outlet positions.

Advantages

The folding, adjustable construction enables quick adaptation to different installation distances without cutting or complex alteration of existing piping. Its accordion profile provides flexibility to absorb small angular misalignment while maintaining a reliable seal when correctly installed. The compact collapsed length and extended reach reduce the need for additional fittings and allow installation where fixed-length connectors would be impractical.

How to use

Measure the distance between the toilet outlet and the soil pipe before selecting the connector and then adjust the flexible tube to the required length within the 270–540 mm range. Fit one end onto the WC spigot and the other end onto the soil pipe outlet, ensuring both connections are fully seated. Secure connections with the appropriate clamps or fixings if required by local practice or building regulations. Confirm the alignment and test for leaks by flushing the toilet; adjust the position slightly if necessary to maintain a watertight joint.

Usage recommendations

Use the connector within its specified length range and avoid overstretching beyond 540 mm. Ensure both mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before installation and apply clamps or seals as recommended for the installation environment. For installations in high-load or non-standard applications, consult local plumbing codes or a qualified installer to confirm suitability.
