McalpineWC-CON8F18 90 Degree Flexible WC Connector, White

Great fitment and very good quality material

Excellent quality item, I Had a slight missalignment from my new toilet and soil pipe in the floor when toilet was positioned back to the wall, worked perfect and toilet fitted and working

Exact fit and well built as you'd expect from Mcalpine.This is the shorter version which the usual diy retails tend not stock

All round good product for a close to wall toilet

McAlpine WC-CON8F18 90 Degree Flexible WC ConnectorWherever possible I prefer McAlpine over other pipe fittings, primarily for two good reasons. Build quality and for the confidence of knowing that they just work, and that’s worth paying a bit extra. For example, not all pipes are created equally, push fit and solvent weld of the same stated diameter are in fact slightly different in size, if you need to join them a McAlpine coupler always does the job whereas a cheaper fitting may or may not. I fitted this in a tight space and had to be spot on with the length, the length in the product description of 170-250mm is somewhat ambiguous. Check the McAlpine web site, you can find detailed technical drawings for all their products that should tell you all you need to know. In this case the flex length range(straight line distance) is 190-270mm from the centre line or middle of the WC inlet to the first fin on the soil pipe side, take 20mm off that to push the connector fully home soil side and you have your 170-250mm stated length. Needless to say, all went well with no issues other than the awkwardness off the working space.

After decorating our downstairs bathroom, I wanted to install the new toilet slightly further away from the wall than the old toilet. The waste pipe is in the floor and fixed.I wasn’t sure before buying this connector which direction it would bend in. It turns out it bends as much side to side as it does front to back. It bent sufficiently to the correct height for connecting, allowing me to move the toilet 12-13 cm along. It’s just what I needed, and it is working perfectly since.For the record, the longer version of this connector (WC-CON8F) will also bend to correct height, but would have moved the toilet approx 22cm along.I hope this information is of help.

Nothing to report other than easy to fit good seal

This is an excellent product which is useful if one needs to move the WC closer to or away from the wall, It would be helpful if the product came with technical information of the amount of movement possible. It would seem to move better if the flexible part is expanded somewhat but this is limited by the height from the soil pipe, I was only able to expand it by about 10mm but it still was good for a movement of about 25mm closer to the wall.
