160mm EN1401 45deg Bend Single Socket
The 160mm EN1401 45deg Bend Single Socket is used to change the direction of underground drainage pipework by forty five degrees while connecting to an existing pipe run. It is designed for gravity drainage systems carrying foul or surface water. The single socket configuration allows one pipe connection, with the opposite end formed to suit insertion into another fitting. This component is intended for below ground use only.

Key design features
The bend provides a controlled forty five degree change in direction within a drainage run. The single socket design allows integration into existing pipework without altering adjacent fittings. The formed end supports consistent alignment through directional changes. This geometry helps maintain steady flow through the bend.
Benefits
- Supports gradual changes in pipe direction.
- Allows connection where only one socketed joint is required.
- Reduces disruption to existing drainage layouts.
- Suitable for new installations and modification work.
Applications
This fitting is used in underground foul water and surface water drainage systems where a forty five degree directional change is needed. It is commonly installed in residential and light commercial drainage runs. The 160mm EN1401 45deg Bend Single Socket is suitable for use with EN1401 compliant pipework. UG645SS is typically selected where space or layout restricts the use of double socket bends.
