WAVIN PVC Sewer Elbow DN160 90 Degrees Brown

The WAVIN PVC sewer elbow is a professional-grade pipe fitting engineered for reliable performance in outdoor gravity drainage and wastewater systems. With a nominal diameter of 160 mm and a 90-degree bend, this component facilitates precise directional changes in sewer networks while maintaining optimal flow characteristics. Manufactured from high-quality PVC, it offers exceptional durability and long-term resistance to environmental factors and chemical substances commonly found in domestic and industrial wastewater.

Advantages

This sewer elbow provides a robust and secure connection point that minimizes the risk of leaks and blockages within the drainage system. Its smooth internal surface ensures efficient waste transport, reducing the likelihood of sediment buildup. The material composition is specifically chosen for its high resistance to corrosion and mechanical stress, ensuring that the fitting maintains its structural integrity even when buried underground. Furthermore, the lightweight design and standardized dimensions allow for quick and straightforward installation, significantly reducing labor time during infrastructure projects.

Suitable for

• Outdoor gravity sewer networks
• Residential and commercial drainage systems
• Wastewater management infrastructure
• Directional changes in underground piping layouts

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended for use in pressurized piping systems or for applications involving the transport of hot liquids exceeding the temperature limits of standard PVC. It should not be used in environments where the pipe will be exposed to direct, prolonged UV radiation or extreme mechanical loads beyond standard underground burial depths.

Key specifications

• Nominal diameter: 160 mm
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Material: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• Color: Brown
• Application: Gravity sewer systems

How to use

Installation should be performed by aligning the elbow with the corresponding 160 mm sewer pipes. Ensure that the pipe ends are clean and free of debris before insertion. Use a suitable lubricant on the seals to facilitate a smooth connection and prevent damage to the rubber gaskets. The fitting should be pushed firmly onto the pipe until it reaches the stop point, ensuring a watertight seal. Always verify that the slope of the pipe run is maintained according to the project design specifications to ensure proper gravity flow.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the nominal diameter of your existing piping system
• Ensure compatibility with the specific pipe material and connection type
• Check local building codes and regulations for sewer installations
• Confirm the required angle for your specific layout

Usage recommendations

For optimal system longevity, ensure the pipe trench is properly prepared with a stable, compacted bedding layer. Avoid using excessive force during installation to prevent cracking the fitting. Regularly inspect the system for signs of settling or blockages to maintain peak performance.
