Solar drain-back check valve SOL-ARM KOREK PE 40, brand SOL-ARM, model PE-67-040

SOL-ARM KOREK PE 40 is a polyethylene drain plug designed for plumbing systems where a robust, corrosion-resistant closure is required. Manufactured for compatibility with SOL-ARM fittings, this PE 40 plug provides a tight seal and long service life in applications involving non-aggressive water and wastewater. The simple geometry and durable polyethylene construction make it suitable for both installation and occasional removal during maintenance.

Advantages

The polyethylene material offers chemical resistance to many common substances encountered in residential and light-commercial drainage systems while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. The design ensures a reliable seal under standard operating conditions and reduces the need for additional sealing materials. Its compatibility with SOL-ARM components simplifies parts selection and replacement, and the smooth surface supports easy cleaning and inspection.

Suitable for

• Sealing open ends of PE piping and fittings in plumbing and drainage systems
• Temporary or permanent closure of service lines during maintenance
• Use in residential, commercial, and light industrial wastewater applications

Key specifications

• Material: polyethylene (PE)
• Nominal size: 40 (suitable for PE 40 fittings and pipes)
• Construction: one-piece molded plug
• Surface: smooth, non-corroding
• Suitable medium: water and wastewater (non-aggressive)

How to use

Before installation, ensure mating pipe or fitting faces are clean and free of debris. Insert the SOL-ARM KOREK PE 40 into the pipe end or fitting until fully seated, applying steady pressure to obtain a firm fit. For permanent installations, verify alignment and seating; for temporary closures, confirm the plug can be removed without excessive force. Inspect the seal after filling the system to detect any leaks and re-seat if necessary.

Usage recommendations

Do not use this polyethylene plug with aggressive chemicals, petroleum-based solvents, or in high-temperature applications that exceed the material's recommended limits. Store the plug away from direct sunlight and prolonged UV exposure to maintain material properties. When used in buried installations, follow local codes for bedding and protection to prevent mechanical damage.
