    Are these pipes really PVC? Not PP?
    Now it will be a problem, because the silicone does not catch anything, even fresh silicone.
    It is best to clean it as best as possible, with sanding the surface, rinse it a few times with silicone remover and either give a decent, branded silicone sealant (not crap for PLN 8 / cartridge), or a bandage several times and resin (can be car / novolac).

    Got it, but you have to use isopropyl alcohol for cleaning.

    The only question is whether it is actually PVC, because nowadays most of it is probably PP (they are also gray) and it does not stick so easily, and there is also an option that the old one is made of a different material than the new one.

    You can't stick PVC pipes together, because they don't have much in common with PVC. Currently, they are made of PP (polypropylene) and so far no one has come up with an adhesive that would stick PP. The silicone also does not stick to this material.
    It is true that there are adhesive sets for plastics from the polyolefin series, including PP. Such a set consists of the proper glue and a special activator, whose task is to increase the surface tension. Before gluing, the surface is lubricated with an activator. The quality of gluing varies and far from gluing with solvent-based adhesives, which partially dissolve the glued plastics.
    The only correct solution is to use special saddle couplings. Using a hole saw dedicated to a given type of connector, a hole is made in the sewer pipe, then the connector with a gasket (rubber, EPDM, silicone) is inserted into the hole, and then by turning and tightening a special ring, the gasket is compressed and the joint is tightened.
    There are also saddle fittings with a band.
    They are available in larger ones in larger installation wholesalers and even DIY stores.

    By the way, I can boast that yesterday I did a little sewage conversion in my backyard and made a patent. It turned out that I missed a PVC 160/110 reduction and there was nowhere to buy.
    But I had a plug 160 and pipes 110 with a socket at my disposal.
    I made a hole in the cork so that the cut cup would enter me. After inserting the socket, I welded the gap between the socket and the plug using PP plastic sticks.
    The patent passed the exam. It's just a pity that I didn't take pictures.
    So I recommend it as one of the methods of making indentations for sewer pipes.
    You just have to remember that not all PVC pipes are suitable for such welding, as some manufacturers add a large amount of fillers to the material and the pipes, instead of melting nicely, simply burn and char. Initially, I tried a few pipes and chose one that melted rather than charred.

    They are sewage pipes, still referred to as PVC / PVC or PVC pipes.
    These pipes are currently not made of PVC / PVC (polyvinyl chloride), but of PP (polypropylene), for gluing which no one has yet invented an effective glue.

    The piece of tee you used just doesn't fit. You have applied a piece of a 100mm tee to the pipe, which is 110mm outside diameter, i.e. inside diameter less than 110mm, and the curves do not match and the silicone does not stick between them.
    Special fittings are used for such connections: bands or saddle covers. They are pressed against the pipe just like you did, but they are made for it. They have an inside diameter slightly larger than the outside diameter of the pipe, and there is a gasket between them.
    Buy such a fitting and you're in trouble.

    Mounting foam and squeeze with a bandage. After drying, it holds and seals.

    Nothing. I have to look for such connectors. I knew that there are such connectors for water pipes, gas pipes, etc. I decided that such connectors are not available for sewage pipes, so I didn't look for them and I did as I did.


    Because such clamps for sewer pipes are indeed rare.
    But you can use the more accessible plumbing. Only diameter compliance matters.

    Hello. The situation is as follows. The floor has a typical 110mm gray PVC pipe ...... What glue or resin would be watertight and watertight?


    Gray pipes are made of PVC and PP.
    If the pipe is really made of PVC poly (vinyl chloride), i.e. Poly (vinyl chloride) - in Poland it is available as PVC or PVC - then normally you glue it with PVC glue. It is an aggressive adhesive for PVC gutters. You can buy it, for example in building depots or in Castorama, or for example:

    Tangit Special PVC glue 125 g tube Tangit is a solvent based PVC adhesive based on tetrahydrofuarate. TANGIT is suitable for making tensile-resistant connections of pressure pipes (gas and water) made with the use of PVC-U pipe fittings according to the recommendations of plastic pipe manufacturers. Tangit is also used for bonding tubular cable ducts and roof gutters.
    Resilience :
    - bonding is waterproof
    Bonding chemical resistance:
    - especially for inorganic acids, it depends on the pipe tolerance, setting times, pressure loads, temperatures, acid type and concentration.

    Not quite normal.
    As I wrote before, if a piece of tee is put on a pipe 110, it is 110, the diameters do not match. There is a gap between them and you need glue in the filler.

    Just heat it up with a burner and the shape will be beautifully done by itself :) Only it needs to be done skillfully so as not to burn the material. Good bands and a seal, even from an inner tube.

    These are quick couplings for PE water pipes and probably end at 63mm.

    But you probably have a leak at the junction of pipes 110 and 50, so sealing a pipe 40 out of 50 won't do anything. Even if it doesn't rain (because the pipe is not completely full), it will stink.

    So much writing and my friend still did not check if it was PVC or PP / PE?
    In the first option, glue and everything ok.

    I remembered that I solved a quite similar problem a few years ago - emergency water discharge from the electric boiler (not to carry 140 liters of buckets up the stairs from the basement, if the heater goes to love :) )
    Reduction tee cut, some silicone, and two ties. There is a plug in the 50mm spigot, but the same can be done for the pipe. Nothing flies, nothing stinks.

    I also talked about it, but he insisted on sticking with silicone, which is afraid of plastic :D
    Good luck.

    Because silicone is not an adhesive but a sealant :D

    I will not agree :)
    Glue together materials that stick together and try to tear them apart.
    It sticks to practically everything - except for plastic.

    I have never tested, but you can paint (any?) Plastic with a varnish for plastics, for this you can paint a finished varnish. Just like the bumpers are painted, e.g.
    Ordinary sanitary silicone sticks very well to the varnish.

    Yes of course :)
    I myself use various silicones as an adhesive, but by definition it is a sealant :P
    And that, by the way, it can be used to improve even an aquarium, it is just such a bonus.
    Well, just as Chinese production sticks to thermogglue, so does our inventions to silicones and mounting foam ...

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around sealing a 110mm PVC pipe with a 50mm entrance, where the user initially used sanitary silicone but experienced leaks. Participants debated the material of the pipes, suggesting that the pipe might be polypropylene (PP) rather than PVC, which complicates adhesion. Recommendations included using high-quality silicone sealants, solvent cement, or specialized adhesives for plastics. Some suggested using saddle couplings or quick couplings for a more reliable connection. Others proposed using resin with a glass fiber mat for sealing, although concerns were raised about the effectiveness of adhesives on modern pipe materials. The user ultimately decided to explore alternative sealing methods rather than gluing.
