VIPSeal Flexible Adaptor Reducer 50mm to 40mm VE059-045
VIPSeal Flexible Adaptor VE059-045 is a 50mm to 40mm flexible reducer for waste, soil, vent and low-pressure drainage pipework. It is designed for joining, adapting or repairing plain-ended pipes where two different waste pipe sizes need to be connected.
VIPSeal Flexible Adaptor Trade Overview
The VIPSeal VE059-045 flexible adaptor is a practical reducing connector for plumbers, bathroom fitters, drainage installers and maintenance teams working with 50mm and 40mm waste pipe systems.
The stepped flexible body allows a larger 50mm / 2″ pipe to be reduced down to 40mm / 1½” pipework. Stainless steel clamp bands tighten around each pipe end to create a secure connection, making it useful for repairs, alterations and awkward waste pipe connections.
This type of flexible adaptor is especially useful where rigid reducers are difficult to fit, where the pipework is slightly misaligned, or where a quick repair connection is needed on low-pressure and non-pressurised waste systems.

Why Choose a VIPSeal Flexible Adaptor?
A flexible adaptor is useful when pipework needs to be reduced from one size to another without rebuilding the full waste run. It can help save time on repair jobs, especially where pipe positions are already fixed.
The VIPSeal Flexible Adaptor VE059-045 is a useful 50mm to 40mm reducer for low-pressure waste pipework, helping connect different pipe sizes with a flexible clamped joint.
Installation Notes
Before fitting, check the outside diameter of both pipes to make sure they are suitable for the adaptor. Clean the pipe ends and remove loose dirt, burrs or damaged edges before installation.
Slide the adaptor over the pipe ends, centre it correctly, then tighten the stainless steel clamp bands evenly. Do not overtighten beyond the manufacturer’s guidance, and make sure the pipe run is properly supported.
After installation, test the pipework and check the joint for leaks before covering or boxing in.
