Geberit HDPE Drainage Fittings
Geberit HDPE fittings form an integral part of the Geberit drainage system, engineered for reliable performance in demanding building drainage environments. Made from high-density polyethylene, these fittings provide a durable, secure connection between pipework, ensuring continuity in performance across commercial, industrial, and residential installations.
Application
- Soil and waste discharge in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings
- High-rise drainage systems including Sovent and SuperTube configurations
- Underground and above-ground drainage applications
- Roof drainage systems
- Installations requiring high chemical and temperature resistance
These fittings are designed for use with Geberit HDPE pipes across a wide range of diameters and can adapt to other systems where necessary.
Key Features & Benefits
- Comprehensive Range: Includes bends, reducers, branches, sockets, adaptors, and access fittings in multiple configurations and angles (e.g. 15°, 30°, 45°, 90°, 135°).
- UV and Chemical Resistance: Fully UV-resistant and impervious to a wide range of chemicals, making them ideal for aggressive waste systems.
- Flexible Design Integration: Can be joined to other materials like cast iron or uPVC using compatible adaptors.
- Impact Resistance: Durable and resilient under stress, including from site handling or thermal expansion.
- SuperTube Technology: Specialised fittings (e.g. BackFlip, BottomTurn) allow for high discharge rates and stack elimination in tall buildings.
- Fire Safety and Sound Insulation: Fittings support fire protection and noise-reduction measures when installed with appropriate insulation and fire collars
Technical Specification
- Material: PE-HD (High-Density Polyethylene)
- Size Range: Compatible with pipes from 32 mm to 315 mm diameter
- Temperature Resistance: From –40°C to +100°C (short-term peaks up to 120°C)
- Jointing Methods:
- Electrofusion: With electrofusion couplings for quick and secure site installation
- Butt-Welding: Ideal for prefabrication or large-diameter pipework
- Certification: BBA Certified (Certificate 92/2796), complies with UK building regulations
Installation Overview
- Preparation: Clean surfaces before welding; alignment and support are critical.
- Electrofusion Welding: Recommended for on-site applications; use AW 315G or equivalent equipment. Provides fast, reliable joints without adhesives.
- Butt-Welding: Suitable for both on-site and off-site prefabrication; universal welding machines handle sizes up to 315 mm.
- Support and Fixing: Use Geberit-approved pipe brackets and fastenings to ensure structural integrity.
- Adaptability: A full range of transition fittings and adaptors enable connections to metal and plastic systems.
