A 110mm Square Drain Hopper Spigot End is a type of drain pipe fitting that is used in plumbing and waste management systems. It is typically made of PVC or plastic material, and it connects to the end of a drainage pipe. The hopper spigot end is designed to allow for the connection of another pipe or fitting into it, such as a tee piece or a bend. The 110mm refers to the nominal size of the pipe, which is the diameter of the internal bore.
The square shape of the hopper spigot end makes it more robust and durable compared to round drain fittings, as the corners of the square shape provide additional strength. This makes it ideal for use in high-stress plumbing applications, such as in commercial buildings and public spaces.
The hopper spigot end features a spigot end, which is a projecting end that fits into the socket end of another fitting. This connection method is known as a socket and spigot joint, and it provides a leak-proof and secure connection between two pipes or fittings. The hopper spigot end also features a hopper, which is a sloping surface that helps to guide water and waste into the pipe, preventing blockages and ensuring efficient flow.
When installing a 110mm Square Drain Hopper Spigot End, it is important to ensure that it is fitted correctly and securely. This can be done by using solvent cement to bond the spigot end to the socket end of the next fitting. The use of solvent cement ensures a permanent and leak-proof connection, and it should be applied to the inside of the socket end and the outside of the spigot end. It is also important to ensure that the hopper spigot end is fitted in the correct orientation, so that the hopper slopes downwards and towards the next fitting. This helps to prevent blockages and ensures that water and waste flows efficiently through the system.
In conclusion, the 110mm Square Drain Hopper Spigot End is a crucial component of a plumbing and waste management system. Its square shape provides additional strength and durability, and its hopper and spigot design ensure efficient flow and prevent blockages. When installing a hopper spigot end, it is important to ensure that it is fitted correctly and securely using solvent cement, and that it is positioned in the correct orientation.
