McAlpine WC-CON8F18 90 Degree Flexible WC Connector - White

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

McAlpine WC-CON8F18 90 Degree Flexible WC Connector Wherever 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.

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

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.

The build quality on this is noticeably better than one I finished with, but watch out for the dimensions. For me (!) it wasn't 100% clear what they referred to - over all length; length to centres; the expandable element? I relied on the adjustment to give me a bit wriggle room, but as the job worked out it wasn't enough. Stuck mid-job I'd no option but to use a much cheaper product from a local store and, whilst it looked cheaper, it's done the job perfectly well with no sealing issues. 5 Stars, but the design means it's not something you can shorten or push home further if you do get it wrong.

Great fitment and very good quality material

So easy to fit. Not a plumber. Took 5 seconds to attach to loo, then waste pipe. No silicone or nonsense required. Not the cheapest but we'll worth the extra dish.

Thank goodness for Mc'alpine, they have saved the day yet again. These products are of excellent quality and do what they are supposed to. This item has a short elbow allowing the pan to go nearer to the wall though in my case I also had to cut into the wall then attach to floor drain which was 80mm form the centre of required pan position. This con 8F18 is a shorter version of two .The longer being con8 F Mcalpine are made in Scotland and make many different types and sizes of pan connectors, I also use their flexible sink shower and bath connections. Buy the correct one and your home and DRY.

Exactly what I needed

Gut, Haltbarkeit konnte ich nicht testen, macht auf jeden Fall einen wertigen Eindruck.

Sauber und Stabile verarbeitet. Aber leider für mich noch ein bisschen zu lang.
