The Pushfit Waste 135° Obtuse Bend 40mm (also referred to as a 45-degree elbow or obtuse bend) is a directional fitting designed to create a soft, shallow 45-degree deviation in a standard 40mm waste pipe run. Manufactured from high-impact polypropylene, this fitting enables smooth directional shifts without creating sharp right angles, helping to maintain high fluid velocity and minimize the risk of waste accumulation and clogs.
 
Equipped with factory-installed elastomeric rubber lip seals in its push-fit sockets, the bend enables a fast, tool-free connection onto standard 40mm push-fit plastic waste pipes. The push-fit mechanism eliminates the need for solvent cement while accommodating natural thermal expansion and contraction from hot water discharge.
 
Ideal for navigating pipework around structural obstructions, wall corners, or offset soil stack connections in kitchen and utility room installations, this fitting is fully resistant to continuous hot water flow and aggressive household detergents. It provides plumbers and DIYers with a reliable, code-compliant component for efficient waste system routing.
 
Pushfit Waste systems are highly adaptable and manufactured to BS EN 1329:2000. They are fully compatible with other systems.
