160 mm Drainage Pipes and Fittings FAQs

What is a 160 mm Underground Drainage Pipe Used For?

Arrow down

160 mm underground drainage pipe is used for handling large volumes of wastewater or surface water in both commercial and domestic applications. It’s also well suited to situations where only lower gradients are possible, allowing for high flow. Their size even lends itself to terraced properties, which share a drainage network. 

Is 160 mm a Standard Size For Underground Drainage?

Arrow down

160 mm is one of two common pipe sizes used for underground drainage. 160 mm tends to be used for larger installations, such as small commercial properties or large domestic sites. The other most common size, 110 mm, which we also stock, is more typically used for domestic setups.

What Material is Used For 160 mm Drainage Pipes and Fittings?

Arrow down

The most commonly used material for 160 mm underground drainage pipes is unplasticised polyvinyl chloride, or uPVC for short. Most of the drainage pipes we supply are uPVC, but we also stock PVC, P/E, aluminium and rubber products.

What Are The Benefits of Using Plastic For 160 mm Drainage Pipes?

Arrow down

Plastics, and uPVC in particular, are favoured as they’re strong yet easy to cut and corrosion-resistant, meaning they’re simple to work with and last a very long time. Additionally, they’re cost-effective to produce, making them affordable to use. 

What Fittings Are Available For 160 mm Drainage Pipes?

Arrow down

We offer a wide range of 160 mm drainage pipe fittings, including sockets, junctions, caps, rodding eyes, seals, non-return valves, adaptors, pipe brackets, plates, threaded bars and more. Our entire range is made with high-grade materials and available with fast shipping.

Which Should I Use - 110 mm or 160 mm Drainage Pipes?

Arrow down

Which size suits you best will depend on your application. 110 mm pipes are better suited to domestic applications, whereas 160 mm underground drainage pipes are typically recommended for larger domestic or smaller commercial use. If you’re struggling to decide which size you need, just give our team a call on 01420 555600.
