Measuring 40mm in diameter with a wall thickness of 1.8mm and a length of 2000mm, this grey polypropylene pipe provides an efficient and durable pathway for wastewater drainage in various building environments.

Advantages

This pipe is manufactured from high-grade polypropylene, which offers excellent resistance to chemical substances and high temperatures typically found in domestic wastewater. The integrated socket connection ensures a secure and leak-proof fit, significantly simplifying the installation process for both professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts. Its lightweight construction combined with robust material properties makes it a long-lasting component for any internal drainage network.

Suitable for

• Residential internal sewage systems
• Commercial building wastewater drainage
• Replacement of damaged internal plumbing pipes
• New construction plumbing installations

When it may not be suitable

This pipe is specifically designed for internal gravity-fed sewage systems and is not suitable for pressurized water supply lines. It should not be used for external underground installations where high soil loads or heavy traffic are present, as it is intended for non-pressure applications inside buildings.

Key specifications

• Material: Polypropylene (PP)
• Diameter: 40 mm
• Wall thickness: 1.8 mm
• Length: 2000 mm
• Color: Grey
• Application: Internal sewerage

How to use

To install the pipe, ensure the cut end is clean and free of burrs. Apply a suitable lubricant to the rubber seal within the socket before inserting the pipe end. Push the pipe into the socket until it reaches the stop, then pull it back slightly by approximately 10mm to allow for thermal expansion. Ensure the pipe is properly supported by brackets to maintain the correct slope for efficient drainage.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required diameter for your specific drainage application
• Ensure you have compatible fittings and brackets for a 40mm pipe
• Check local building regulations regarding internal sewage materials

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the joints for any signs of leakage and ensure that the pipe remains free from blockages by avoiding the disposal of solid waste or chemicals that could damage the polypropylene material.
