Viva Medium Flexible Pan Connector 110mm

The Viva Medium Flexible Pan Connector links a toilet pan to the soil pipe where the two do not line up. It is for 110mm (4 inch) soil pipe and stretches from about 240mm to 500mm. This flexible pan connector suits anyone fitting a new toilet, moving a pan slightly, or replacing a cracked rigid connector.

One end pushes over the pan outlet and fits spigots from 90mm to 107mm. The other end goes into 110mm PVC-U or cast iron soil pipe. The body is wire reinforced polypropylene, so it bends round an offset and holds its shape without kinking. Keep it as short and straight as the job allows, and make sure the run still falls towards the stack.

Common Questions

What is a flexible pan connector? It’s a bendable sleeve that joins the outlet of a toilet pan to the soil pipe. It comes into its own when the pan and pipe don’t line up, which a rigid connector can’t cope with.

What size pan connector do I need? This one suits 110mm soil pipe, the usual size in UK homes, and pan spigots from 90mm to 107mm. Measure the gap from pan to soil pipe as well, since the medium length covers roughly 240mm to 500mm.

How do I fit a flexible pan connector? Push one end well over the pan spigot and the other into the soil pipe, then set the pan where it’s going to sit. Check the connector isn’t stretched, kinked or sagging before you screw the pan down and give it a few test flushes.

Can you bend a flexible pan connector round an offset? Yes, the wire reinforced body is made to curve round an offset and hold its shape. Keep the run as short and direct as you can, and make sure it still falls towards the stack.

Can I cut a flexible pan connector shorter? We wouldn’t, as the ends are what make the seals. If your gap is under about 240mm, a shorter connector is the better bet.

Do flexible pan connectors block up? Not when they’re fitted right. Trouble usually comes from a connector that sags or is overstretched, so keep it straight, supported and falling towards the soil pipe.

Will the PP0002/A fit an old cast iron soil pipe? Yes, the soil pipe end goes into 110mm cast iron as well as PVC-U. Clean out the inside of the old pipe first so the seal has a good surface to grip.
