Chimney Liner WADEX 180 mm, 1 m length

WADEX stainless-steel chimney liner with a 180 mm inner diameter and 1 m length is designed for relining and repairing existing chimney shafts and for creating flexible flue runs. The smooth stainless-steel surface improves smoke and condensate evacuation, reduces the risk of blockages and simplifies connection to solid fuel, gas or oil appliances that require a 180 mm liner. The product is intended to restore safe draft characteristics and extend the operational life of the chimney system.

Advantages

The 180 mm WADEX liner is corrosion-resistant due to its stainless-steel construction and provides a consistent, smooth internal passage for combustion gases. Its 1 m modular length allows precise adaptation to chimney height with fewer joins, and compatibility with standard 180 mm fittings facilitates straightforward installation. The liner helps stabilise draft, improves exhaust flow and reduces maintenance needs compared with deteriorated masonry flues.

Suitable for

• Relining deteriorated masonry chimneys for solid fuel stoves and boilers
• Installing flexible flue runs for gas-fired appliances that require 180 mm diameter
• Repairing oil appliance flues where a stainless-steel liner is required
• Creating a smooth internal flue path to reduce soot accumulation and blockages

Key specifications

• Inner diameter: 180 mm
• Length: 1 m
• Material: stainless steel (smooth inner surface)
• Suitable for: solid fuel, gas and oil appliance flues requiring 180 mm liner
• Modular design for stepwise insertion and connection

How to use

Measure the chimney or flue length and determine the number of 1 m sections required to reach the connection point. Insert successive liner sections into the existing chimney from the top or bottom according to access and installer preference, ensuring that each joint is engaged fully and any manufacturer-recommended seals or fixing bands are applied. Connect the liner to the appliance flue outlet using compatible 180 mm fittings and check alignment to avoid stress on joints. Complete the installation by sealing and insulating the chimney as required by local regulations and allowing space for thermal expansion.

Usage recommendations

Use the WADEX 180 mm liner with appropriate stainless-steel connectors, support brackets and high-temperature seals. Follow local building codes and appliance manufacturers' instructions; where required, have the relining and connection work carried out or inspected by a qualified installer. Schedule periodic inspections and cleaning to maintain safe draft and prevent soot or creosote buildup.
