The flexible rubber manchon would take the strain.[/quote] you are joking right :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These can only be glued to the 100mm pipe but will provide a flexible connection.I just haven't seen any 100mm pipes in the Bricos or even the builders suppliers with rubber seals fitted without using the manchons as mentioned above.
