Wavin Sewer Branch 160x160mm 45° PVC Brown

The Wavin sewer branch 160x160mm 45° in brown PVC is a professional-grade fitting engineered for robust wastewater drainage systems. Designed for seamless integration into external sewage networks, this component facilitates a reliable 45-degree junction between two 160mm pipes, ensuring efficient flow and structural integrity within the pipeline.

Advantages

This PVC sewer branch offers exceptional durability and resistance to the harsh conditions typically found in underground sewage installations. The high-quality material composition ensures immunity to corrosion, chemical substances, and soil-related environmental factors, which significantly extends the service life of the entire drainage system. Its precise manufacturing guarantees a tight, leak-proof fit, minimizing the risk of groundwater infiltration or wastewater leakage, while the smooth internal surface promotes optimal hydraulic performance and prevents blockages.

Suitable for

• External sewage and drainage networks
• Residential and commercial wastewater systems
• Gravity-fed drainage infrastructure
• Connecting branch lines to main sewer pipes

When it may not be suitable

This fitting is specifically designed for non-pressure gravity sewage systems and should not be used in high-pressure water supply lines or industrial piping systems carrying aggressive chemicals not compatible with PVC. It is also not intended for applications involving temperatures exceeding the standard thermal limits of PVC piping.

Key specifications

• Material: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• Diameter: 160mm x 160mm
• Angle: 45 degrees
• Color: Brown
• Application: External sewage

How to use

To install the Wavin sewer branch, ensure that the pipe ends are clean, dry, and free of debris. Apply a suitable lubricant to the pipe ends and the rubber seals within the branch sockets to facilitate an easy insertion. Align the pipes carefully with the branch openings and push them firmly into the sockets until they reach the stop position. Ensure the system is properly supported and bedded in accordance with local civil engineering standards to prevent mechanical stress on the joints.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your existing pipe system to ensure compatibility with the 160mm connection.
• Check the required angle for your pipeline layout to confirm that 45 degrees is appropriate for your flow direction.
• Ensure that the installation environment is compatible with PVC material specifications.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the sewage system for signs of settling or movement that could place stress on the joints. Ensure that the backfilling process around the pipe and branch is performed with suitable granular material to provide uniform support and prevent localized pressure points.
