Fernco Qwik Access
Provides access for CCTV and drain clearance - a new and unique addition to the Fernco Pipe Doctor Range.
The Fernco Qwik Access is a brand new and exciting addition to the Fernco Pipe Doctor range.
- Withstands up to 1 bar
- Can be removed and refitted
- Pre-assembled for direct insertion into the host pipe
Designed for use on DN70, DN100 and DN150 plastic, ductile and cast iron fall pipes, the Fernco Qwik Access kit includes 10 x Qwik Access, and a full set of tools.
These include a 54mm diamond core drill for cutting the hole to the exact required size, a de-burring tool for smoothing off the hole, and an allen key to tighten the Qwik Access once it's in place.
Compared to a piece of broken pipe, a reinforced sticky tape or perhaps a coupling, the Fernco Qwik Access is a neat, tidy and professional alternative.
