Trap Inlets

When Connecting the Trap Inlet to the Waste Outlet, it is important to ensure that a proper 'seating' is obtained and it is therefore recommended that the Waste Outlet used be to British Standard or equivalent, otherwise difficulty may be experienced in obtaining a water tight joint. Although all traps are supplied complete with Inlet Washers, it is nevertheless recommended that a suitable Jointing Compound be used.

Trap Outlets (Multifit)

For use with Plastic Pipes to BS5254 and BS5255, Copper Pipe (metric or imperial) and Lead pipe. Fit as follows:

1) Chamfer inside of pipe (if required) to remove any burr or to enable Plastic Pipe to be eased over internal sleeve.

2) Remove Nut, Plastic Washer and Rubber Olive from Trap

3) Push Nut, Plastic Washer and Rubber Olive over pipe

4) Push Pipe over Internal Sleeve and Into Trap

5) Connect Nut and hand tighten

If plastic pipe is undersize, or out of shape, end of pipe may require to be heated to enable it to be pushed over the internal sleeve and into the Trap (or Fitting).
