4” pipe lagging query??

macka09 · Tuesday at 11:18 AM

Hi folks
I don’t normally do much pipe lagging but I need to lag some rain water pipe work.

Thing is I’m struggling with lagging the branches properly. Any advice that could be useful?? I’m using foil faced rockwool.

Cheers

What are you struggling with the dia or the branch bend ?

The branch bend. Cutting the lagging like you would for the usual size pipe just doesn’t work.

It won’t as it’s swept so you will have to nibble / curf cut the inside radius

I thought as much. It’s actually a double branch. Like a big tee with a prodding eye in the end. Bloody nightmare.
