Used With Plastic Waste Pipework.
The compression fitting is a very flexible type of fitting that will work with lots of the materials that are used in the world of plumbing today. It will effect a watertight seal by compressing two rubber rings in between the pipe and fitting. Plumbing fittings are now the compression type because they allow a job to be constructed and broken down really easily, to clear a blockage fast. A Feltham Plumber is experienced with compression fittings.

Cutting a Plastic Waste Pipe For A Fitting.
There is a point on the waste pipe that the fitting will reach when it is slipped over. So as the pipework you must allow for the extra measurement and it will make sure that the joint is good and watertight. When the pipe is cut make sure that you file of any burrs or rough edges that are present, which can be done ideally using a half rounded file. Make sure that you pay attention to the inner edge because the water that flows through will possibly have foreign objects in it that will catch the inner edge if rough and build up causing a block in the pipework. Feltham Plumbers are experienced with compression fittings.

Connection:
The most common system for the waste pipework is to fit a trap or bend using big plastic nuts at each end and a rubber ring or washer for both ends of the connection. Place the large nut over the pipework. Secondly, the rubber ring or washer. If either is tapered, fit so the taper faces the fitting. Finally, push the pipe into the fitting and tighten the nut. Hand-tighten only, as the rubber washer is quite soft and can be adequately compressed by hand.

Should the joint is leak, it normally indicates that a component is misaligned or misplaced. “
