Standard PVC Waste Pipe 1½ Inch, 40mm, 6m Length

PVC Waste Pipe 1½”

The PVC Waste Pipe 1½ Inch serves as the primary conduit for residential and commercial greywater management. This uPVC component handles discharge from kitchen sinks, bathroom basins, and urinals with consistent reliability. It provides a corrosion-resistant alternative to traditional metal piping for non-pressure drainage applications.

Built for the Job

Plumbers and site contractors utilize this 40mm nominal diameter piping for internal waste branching and secondary stack connections. The unplasticized polyvinyl chloride construction withstands common household chemicals, detergents, and mild acids found in wastewater. Its smooth internal bore reduces friction, which prevents the accumulation of debris and limits the risk of blockages over time. This material maintains structural integrity in varied environmental conditions, making it suitable for both concealed and exposed installations within a building’s envelope.

• Installation of kitchen sink waste outlets and dishwasher discharge lines.

• Connection of bathroom washbasins and bidet drainage systems.

• Routing of condensate drainage for HVAC units and refrigeration equipment.

Product Highlights

Chemical Resistance

The uPVC material prevents degradation when exposed to soaps, grease, and standard cleaning agents.

Installation Features

• Rigid construction supports long horizontal runs without excessive sagging.
• Compatible with standard 40mm solvent weld fittings and traps.
• Lightweight profile allows for efficient overhead handling and fixing.

Hydraulic Efficiency

Mirror-smooth interior walls facilitate high flow rates and minimize sediment buildup.

Technical Specifications

What’s Included

• 1 x 6-Meter Length of 40mm PVC Waste Pipe

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Ensure all cut ends are square and deburred before applying solvent cement to prevent joint failure.

• Maintain a minimum fall of 1 in 40 (2.5%) for horizontal waste runs to ensure self-cleansing velocity.

• Space pipe clips at maximum intervals of 1.2 meters for horizontal support and 1.8 meters for vertical runs.

• This material is designed for non-pressure gravity drainage only and should not be used for pressurized water supply.

• Store pipes on a flat surface in the shade to prevent bowing and UV degradation before installation.
