    I have to solve a problem with two non-standard angles on a 68mm gutter uPVC downpipe. Is there such a product available? I've seen plenty for 110mm waste pipes and quite elegant ones at that, but nothing for downpipe. Anyone?

    Hi
    Thinking out the box, how about warm the pipe and Ben to required angle!

    If you can do it with iron pipe............

    Something I've wondered myself, you get adjustable soil pipe bends 0-45 degree & 0-90 degree,surprised it hasn't been applied to things like downpipe, as you can get them for 40mm waste pipe.

    If square, try to add 'square to round' adaptors at the bends, this can give slightly different angle possibilities. An extra bend can add more possibilities.

    The downpipe is round and routes underneath a wooden cabin. I'm not quite ready yet to crawl under there with a blowtorch. Bending plastic is not as easy as it sounds. The tube usually collapses. Nevertheless, the confined space and proximity of timber prevents pyrotechnics.
