Oil-resistant flexible joint VPC DN/OD430-500mm, for drainage pipes made of various materials (cast iron, PP, PE, PVC, stoneware, concrete, GRP, other smooth, corrugated, ribbed) VPC500OEL_0000

Flexible connection of various drainage materials

The Funke VPC flexible connector is a reliable solution for connecting drainage pipes made of different materials – cast iron, PP, PE, PVC, stoneware, concrete, GRP, as well as smooth, corrugated and ribbed pipes. Its design allows connection of elements with different outer diameters, eliminating the need for additional adapters in many cases. This saves time and costs during installation.

The connector consists of an elastomeric sealing sleeve, a positioning basket made of plastic and two steel alloy straps. The sleeve made of EPDM provides tightness confirmed by the PN-EN 1610 standard, and the double sealing profile guarantees a reliable connection. The positioning basket centers the connected elements and allows smooth diameter adjustment. The steel alloy straps ensure even fit and secure fastening.

The oil-resistant version of the VPC connector is characterized by elements made of V4A (1.4404) stainless steel, which provides resistance to oils, gasoline and aggressive chemicals present in wastewater and soil. This is particularly important in places exposed to contact with petroleum substances or in a highly chemically aggressive environment. The connector is also resistant to the action of salt water.

• Versatility: Connects pipes made of different materials and with different outer diameters.
• Tightness: The double sealing profile of the EPDM sleeve guarantees reliable sealing in accordance with the PN-EN 1610 standard.
• Chemical resistance: The oil-resistant version (V4A) provides resistance to oils, gasoline and aggressive chemicals.
• Easy installation: The connector design allows for quick and secure installation without the need for specialized tools (although a tangens key may be useful for larger diameters).
• Flexibility: The connector compensates for small displacements and stresses in the installation, minimizing the risk of damage.
• Durability: The use of high-quality materials guarantees long life and reliable connection.

The VPC connector is an ideal solution for both professional installers looking for a universal and reliable element for building drainage systems, and for end customers who value the durability and safety of the installation. It allows for a flexible approach to the design of drainage installations and minimizes the risk of problems related to different pipe materials.
