PEHD socket 40 with double seal, black (HDPE drainage) 360.700.16.1

Compensation and durability in the drainage system

The compensation socket made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with a diameter of 40 mm is a key element of the Geberit HDPE drainage system. Designed to connect pipes and fittings, it provides a reliable connection through butt or electrofusion welding. Its construction, with a double sealing ring, guarantees tightness and long-term operation, minimizing the risk of leaks.

This element is particularly valuable in installations exposed to mechanical and chemical loads. The PE-80 material is characterized by high resistance to the action of most standard alkalis, acids and chemical substances – even up to 95% – making it an ideal solution in demanding industrial, laboratory or commercial environments. Additionally, polyethylene is resistant to UV radiation, allowing for longer-term outdoor storage of components without loss of properties.

The Geberit HDPE compensation socket finds application in a wide spectrum of installations: from draining water from buildings and roof drainage (both gravity and vacuum), to terrain drainage and industrial installations. The possibility of laying in concrete further expands its scope of use. The length of the socket is 237 mm, and the outer diameter of the pipe is 40 mm. Using this element translates into the durability and trouble-free operation of the entire drainage system, ensuring peace of mind for many years.

• Chemical resistance: Withstands the action of most acids and alkalis, which is crucial in industrial environments.
• UV resistance: Possibility of outdoor storage without loss of properties.
• Durable connection: Butt or electrofusion welding ensures a tight and reliable connection.
• Versatility: Suitable for various types of installations – from building to industrial, as well as for laying in concrete.
• Stress compensation: The construction with a double ring helps absorb thermal and mechanical stresses, preventing damage.
