Access fittings for soil and rainwater systems eliminate screw threads

Bret Martin Plumbing, soil, waste, stack

A full range of access fittings for soil and rainwater systems is available from Bret Martin Plumbing in 110 and 160 mm diameters. The range of 110 mm fittings includes pipe, bend and branch, along with a 160 mm access pipe. A twist-and-lock cap closes the fittings with a simple quarter turn and ensures equal sealing pressure around the seal.

The elimination of threaded connections for access-cap connections overcomes the problem of cross threading. The 103 mm opening provides full and easy access to the pipework system.

Access fittings are available to suit all colours of push-fit and solvent-weld systems.

All these access fittings are made from PVC and polypropylene components, making them durable and ultimately recyclable.
